Hiking with scoliosis.
I have a mild S-curved spine and fine my neck and shoulders, middle back and lower back getting really tight/sore when I start to push it.
Anyone have any tips for how to carry rucksack, alleviate pain etc?
I did 19km the other day in snowy conditions and did fine except I started to feel the strain when I reached dry land and my spine had to absorb solid ground again on the descent.

Does your pack have a frame?

I've walked with one with and without a frame (balanced correctly), I feel at some point my shoulders round up because of the strain of the hike, which is increased by the weight of the pack because I get tired quicker and so less vigilant about my posture, which makes me stiff as fuck.
