Does anyone else have this problem? Especially on the side you're curve is worse.

    Yep. I had a PT give me specific exercises, some on a mat and some with a Lacrosse ball or foam roller. The side I thought was weak was actually over-developed on the side my curve went to. It felt more difficult because when I bent that way I was working against the curve. So I'm supposed to do more exercises on the other side.

    I don't think I've ever noticed a weakness of the obliques. I danced (ballet) for my entire childhood which seems to have given me a strong core though. Do you do any strength training to try to help? I find yoga to be particularly helpful for core strength.
