Spine Related problem

2021-06-18 07:25:27
Hi I have a lower back pain from past 3 years , no idea why it started, I went to orthopedic doctor and he suggested to take MRI and the report says,  "Bilateral spondylolysis with grade I anterolisthesis of L5 over S1 vertebral body.  Posterior annular tear and posterior disc herniation at this level causing significant narrowing of bilateral neural foramina and compression of bilateral exiting nerve roots(R>L)." Doctor is suggesting for surgery and I don't want to go with surgery as it is related to spine and I am hearing lot of negatives about spine surgeries Pls suggest what to do, I am 31 years old and a resident of Bangalore

No one offers surgery without reason. You can avoid surgery but depending on your lifestyle modifications. Consult for details.
