Spondylolisthesis is a painful condition that occurs when vertebrae at the base of your spine slip out of position. The slipped vertebrae often press or pinch nerves and cause pain in the lower back and legs. But spondylolisthesis is usually treatable with therapy or surgery, which is always a last resort.
Whenever you experience back pain, seek accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment from pain management experts, such as those at Redefine Healthcare in northern New Jersey.

Spondylolisthesis has many symptoms, often mimicking those of other spine conditions, such as a herniated disc, piriformis syndrome or sciatica.
Symptoms may include:
It’s possible to have spondylolisthesis and not have any symptoms. In these instances, we sometimes diagnose spondylolisthesis at yearly exams. However, in most cases, you’ll first notice lower back pain and often are unsure of the cause.
To diagnose spondylolisthesis, your doctor performs a physical exam of your spine and asks you questions about your pain and symptoms. If he suspects spondylolisthesis, your doctor orders an x-ray of your spine to determine the location and severity of the slipped bone. From there, your doctor can usually prescribe treatment, although they will need additional imaging tests in some cases.
Treatment for spondylolisthesis usually includes at-home care and therapy, although surgery may be necessary as a last resort in rare cases. However, don’t begin any self-care measure without a proper diagnosis and clear instructions from your doctor targeting your specific problem. Spondylolisthesis treatment therapies include:
