What is the treatment for grade1 anterolisthesis of l5 on s1?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Edward Hellman answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Varies: It really is based on symptoms. If symptoms are mild, no treatment necessarily needed. If increased back or leg pain or difficulty walking, the progressively more involved options include medications, therapy, chiropractic, interventional pain managemt; or in severe cases that fail non- operative care: surgery.
