Spondylosis

Spondylolisthesis occurs when a vertebrae (or spinal bone) moves out of position and rests on the bone below it, placing pressure on one or more nerves. This condition is a common cause of back pain that can interfere with your day-to-day activities. In many cases we can treat spondylolisthesis with nonsurgical treatment options at first. However, some patients will still require surgery.

Symptoms of Spondylolisthesis

Patients who experience symptoms typically present with:

  • Lower back pain

  • Muscle spasms in your hamstring, or back part of your thigh

  • Pain that extends down your leg

  • Tingling in your foot
