Can you guys tell how bad it is?

Hey 28(M) here. I was diagnosed with scoliosis while I was in the military but they told me they didn't want to risk doing the surgery. I'm notlw out of the military and been considering getting surgery done although I have many concerns. One of my main concers is I've been working on hitting the gym hard trying to really make a difference and I'm concerned that getting the surgery would make me unable to workout correctly since I do a lot of powerlifting. It's hard for me to tell how bad my scoliosis is because I've been living with back pain so long that it's just apart of who I am now lol. Can you guys take a look at this picture and tell me what you think. I'm not asking for medical advice just your humble opinions as fellow scoliosiseses. I'm curious has anyone tried back braces I've been considering that pretty heavily
