Spondylolisthesis is a spinal condition where one vertebra slips over another, leading to lower back pain, stiffness, muscle weakness, numbness, and difficulty walking or standing for long periods. It can result from aging, congenital defects, or spinal injuries. When conservative treatments like physical therapy and medications fail to provide relief, surgery becomes necessary to stabilize the spine and relieve nerve compression. Surgical procedures for spondylolisthesis, such as spinal fusion or decompression, typically take a few hours, depending on the severity of the condition. Recovery can take a few weeks to months, with physical therapy aiding the healing process. The benefits of surgery include pain relief, improved mobility, enhanced spinal stability, and a better quality of life.
