Spondylolisthesis primarily affects the spine, where one vertebra slips out of place over another, usually in the lower back. While it mainly causes symptoms like Back pain and potential nerve compression, it can indirectly affect the arms if nerve pathways are impacted. For example, issues in the cervical spine (neck region) can lead to radiating pain or numbness in the arms. However, spondylolisthesis itself does not directly cause arm problems unless there is involvement of the cervical region or related nerve issues.
