I recently got my x-rays done. The say my 12th rib is possibly hypoplastic and the L5-S1 disc space has reduced and antero-listhesis of the L5 vertebraw are seen.

What exactly does this mean?
 
Hello, :wave:
I did some research for you and have the best answers I could get for you on your problem,

A hypoplastic rib is one that fails to fully develop. If it is a single isolated rib, there is usually no consequence. The condition is not associated with pain.

Anterolisthesis means that upper lurabar vertebrae(L5) has slipped forward on lower sacral vertebrae(S1). therefore making that space between these reduced.
I hope this has explained it for you, if there's anything else you want to know, I will try my best to help, just post up the question :)
