Restarting Traction Therapy

[takit]

Hello,

I started using the PeniMaster Pro in December and stoped therapy by the end of January. I applied light traction for 4 hours a day. I stoped after two month because my condition has suddenly worsened. I don't know if it was the traction or something else.

I thought I'd give it a break till the worsening stops, but until now it didn't. Since the "second outbreak" curvature increases by about 2 degrees per week.

What do you think, can traction help to stop the worsening or should a wait until it stabilizes?

Thanks

I am of the firm belief that gentle traction can prevent shortening and curvature issues.  I started using the PMP shortly after my symptoms began and I believe it slowed down the progression and it did help me. Each person is different though.  You must use trial and error approach.

Thank you for your reply.  That trial and error approach is no fun at all

Thanks for the link. I'm resuming treatment today and hopefully will have positive things to report soon.
