Suggest Treatment For Spondylolysis In A Kid
my son is only 5 years old and he is diagnosed with spondylolysis and the doctor said its nothing to worry about and he will see him next six months. Im concerned the six months going to waste and i want to help him heal cause he is very active child. Do you think the doctor should have started him with something?

Hi,
Spondylolysis is caused by repetitive microtrauma in growing child which is very active. As your doctor said it will heal without any medication. So as he said no need to worry at all. He is a growing child.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Hazan
