How Can Spondylolisthesis Be Treated?
I have spondylolisthesis at L4/5, unstable. I had fusion surgery in July 2015. Since then I have had a deep ached in my low back. Spent over a year in PT and have have also had several injections and a rhizotomy. Struggling to get relief from this. Currently taking aleve and norco 10/325. Help!

Hello,
Consult a spine surgeon and get evaluated.
You can opt or a steroid injection to the spine for pain relief.
A surgical correction will not be required probably.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
