My son had bi lateral pars, Broke both l5 vertebrae (ears or spondy as they called it) though not at the same time. We did take a couple of weeks off seeking several  opinions from different specialists. Never needed a back brace and started rehab work about 3 weeks after diagnosis. Looking in the mirror he was physically strong however his core was weak, that where the rehab was extremely beneficial. Son missed his high school season but is playing summer ball currently with no issues. There are specific warm up exercises and continued training that he does to help protect that area and so far so good. Spondylosis is not a baseball death sentence for everyone. Hope your son can continue his career.

CBT300, very glad to hear your son bounced back strongly—hopefully he still doing well?.We received word about a month ago that our son had bilateral pars in his L5.  I was wondering if your son pitches and if so how long it took him to get back on the mound a) for bullpens and b) for game competition?  PT starts in about a week for our son and knowing some examples of general time lines in these areas
