CONDITION OF THE WEEK!
SPONDYLOLYSIS OF THE SPINE
Spondylolysis is a stress fracture in one of the vertebrae, typically in the lower back (lumbar spine). This condition occurs when there is a crack or defect in the bone that connects the joints on either side of the vertebra, known as the pars interarticularis. It is common in athletes who participate in activities involving repetitive back extension, like gymnastics or weightlifting, but it can also occur in people with poor posture or who experience trauma to the back.
