A member asked:
I have anterolisthesis at the l5/s1 level. what is that and can it be reversed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: A spinal listhesis means that your vertebral bodies or "back bones" are starting to shift relative to each other. Normally they are lined up. This can occur from a defect in the bone or advanced arthritis. This is a common finding for many patients and often doesn't cause a problem if you maintain good core strength.
