<div class="paragraph">
<div>Today, we will introduce everyone to lumbar spondylolisthesis in detail, starting from the symptoms that serve as warning signs, what actually causes lumbar spondylolisthesis, and whether surgery is as scary as people think.</div>
</div>
<h4></h4>
<h4><span style="color: #00826a;">Warning signs… risk of lumbar spondylolisthesis</span></h4>
<div class="paragraph">
<div>When lumbar spondylolisthesis occurs, the nerves are compressed, causing patients to feel pain from the shoulder down to the leg. The legs begin to feel weak. In severe cases where the vertebrae are significantly displaced, all nerves may be compressed, resulting in numbness in both legs or even difficulty urinating.</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<h4></h4>
<h4><span style="color: #00826a;">Causes of lumbar spondylolisthesis…</span></h4>
<div>In fact, there are many causes of lumbar spondylolisthesis, such as aging, continuous and prolonged use that leads to degeneration of the intervertebral discs, joints, and ligaments. Moreover, cases with excess body weight or frequent poor posture increase the risk of developing this condition even more.</div>

<h4><span style="color: #00826a;">Screw fixation… helps treat lumbar spondylolisthesis</span></h4>
<div>Patients with mild symptoms or who have not yet experienced muscle weakness can be treated with exercise combined with weight loss to strengthen the back muscles, or by taking medication as prescribed by a doctor. However, in severe cases of lumbar spondylolisthesis, <em><span style="color: #00826a;">“screw fixation surgery”</span></em> is the treatment method that helps stabilize the unstable vertebrae back into their original alignment. Although surgery is the only way to cure this condition, it is usually the last option! This depends primarily on the doctor&#8217;s judgment and the patient&#8217;s preference.</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<h4></h4>
<h4><span style="color: #00826a;">Screw fixation surgery… small incision, less pain, quick recovery</span></h4>
<div>When it comes to <em><span style="color: #00826a;">“surgery”</span></em>, patients often worry about the size of the incision. The <em><span style="color: #00826a;">“screw fixation surgery”</span></em> involves a small incision of only 2.5 cm on each side to allow the insertion of a camera to the area where the screws will be fixed. The surgeon operates on the sides of the spine (right and left sides of the spinal column) instead of making a long incision down the middle. This method causes less muscle damage, less blood loss during surgery, and most patients do not require blood transfusions during the operation. Postoperative pain is minimal, and recovery time is shorter compared to other surgical methods.</div>
