Spondylolisthesis is a structural problem. And it’s pretty common. (Normally every 5 in 100 people have it. 50% of Eskimo have it) Mostly it’s asymptotic. Before commenting any further I would like to see a dynamic x ray of your lumbar spine.
Next Steps
You can take analgesic. Locally apply spray. Hot fomenting.
Health Tips
If problem persist better consult specialist
