Brief Answer:
Conservative management is all that is needed at the moment
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.
I understand your concern.
I have gone through your uploaded reports as well.
Stage 1 spondylolisthesis does not warrant a surgery unless the symptoms are severe and nerve compromise is evident.
As of now you can be managed medically.
You have received the right kind of treatment so far.
I advise you to get an MRI scan and follow up with a Neurosurgeon after 3 months.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
