Hi Krista,

It looks like there are other pains associated with Spondylolysis. According to bettermedicine.com:

 

  • Back or neck pain that may or may not radiate to the limbs
  • Headache (especially with cervical spondylosis)
  • Herniated disc
  • Muscle spasms
  • Neck pain and stiffness (in cervical spondylosis)
  • Nerve problems that cause pain, numbness or tingling in the arms, shoulders or legs
  • Sciatica
  •  

    This doesn't sound specific to your pain, however, it is not uncommon for pain to "move." Oftentimes, when we feel pain in one part of our body, we overcompensate with other parts. This could be the case.

    How long has the pain lasted for? Is it unbearable or not so bad? If it persists, it's best to have a doctor check it out and make sure nothing serious is going on. 

    Visit http://www.bettermedicine.com/article/spondylosis/symptoms
    for more information, and to make sure you don't have any other symptoms that could indicate a more serious condition. Good luck.

     

    Best,

    Danielle.
