Prevention
To reduce your risk of getting spondylolysis:
- Limit participation in certain sports to a reasonable amount. This will help prevent overuse injury.
- Keep the abdominal and back muscles strong and the hamstring muscles supple.
- Use proper equipment for your sport.
- Warm up properly before exercising or playing sports.
- Learn proper techniques for exercise and athletic activities.
- Seek medical care for chronic back pain. Early vertebral stress fractures, particularly in adolescents and young adults, may heal with rest.
