My 11 yrs Old Has Scoliosis & the Dr says it is severe & insist she needs surgery.

My questions does she have to do this surgery especially since she does not feel any pain?

I have many back problems, so I joined back groups on Facebook. There is a group for everything that ails me. I wanted information on surgery also. I'd go there if you find nothing here. My grandson has severe scoliosis, but is paralyzed with spina bifida and does not feel, but anything with the spine affects other parts of the body.
