A member asked:
Please let me know if there is a cure for diseases of the spine called spondylosis and spondylitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may: Spondylolysis is a fracture of part of a vertebra. It could heal on its own over a six week period. Spondylisthesis involves a fracture of a vertebra that slips out of the vertebral column. See an orthopedic spine specialist for differentiation and treatment.
