Question

My 17-year-old daughter had brain tumor surgery at age 4 and now has issues with her breast and neck shifting out of place. An ortho doctor recommended seeing a surgeon for reverse cervical lordosis, but we're worried about another operation. Are there non-surgical options to help correct this or relieve her symptoms?
