  • spondylolisthesis
    Spondylolisthesis is a slipping of vertebrae that occurs, in most cases, at the base of the spine and causes pain.

    A vertebra could be defective from the time a person is born, or broken by trauma or a stress fracture. Vertebrae can be broken down by infection or disease. But most commonly the disorder occurs in children and adolescents who are active in sports and athletics.

    If you have spondylolisthesis or are caring for someone with the condition, this is the forum to share your experiences and support one another.
