How to treat reoccurent spondylolysis in my l5 vertebrae?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See the Spinal surg-: Eon who has treated you, as he would have options to help you, as he knows you, has treated you, knows the local condition of your back, etc and whatever previous treatments were used. Spinal fusion or a redo fusion might be an option. Check with him/her. Good luck.
