SPINAL CANAL STENOSIS
About Spinal Canal Stenosis
Spinal Canal Stenosis is a condition where the spaces within the spine narrow, which can put pressure on the spinal cord and the nerves that travel through it. This narrowing can occur in any part of the spine but is most commonly found in the lower back (lumbar spine) and the neck (cervical spine )

Symptoms of spinal canal stenosis can vary depending on the location and severity of the narrowing. Common symptoms include:
-

Numbness or Tingling: Sensations of pins and needles in the arms, legs, hands, or feet.
-
Weakness: Muscle weakness in the affected areas.

Difficulty Walking: Trouble walking or maintaining balance.
-
Bowel or Bladder Issues: In severe cases, there may be problems with bowel or bladder control
Causes
Spinal canal stenosis can be caused by several factors, including:
-
Aging: Wear and tear on the spine over time can lead to bone spurs and thickened ligaments.
-
Herniated Discs: Discs that bulge out of place can compress the spinal cord or nerves.
-
Arthritis: Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can cause inflammation and narrowing of the spinal canal.
-
Spinal Injuries: Trauma or injuries to the spine can result in structural changes.
-
Congenital Conditions: Some people are born with a naturally narrow spinal canal
Treatment & Prevention

Treatment options for spinal canal stenosis may include:
-
Medications: Pain relievers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and muscle relaxants can help manage symptoms.
-
Physical Therapy: Exercises to strengthen the muscles supporting the spine and improve flexibility.
-
Chiropractic Care: Spinal adjustments and manipulations to relieve pressure on the nerves.
-
Epidural Injections: Corticosteroid injections to reduce inflammation and pain.
-
Surgery: In severe cases, surgical procedures such as laminectomy or spinal fusion may be necessary to create more space within the spinal canal.

While aging-related spinal stenosis cannot be prevented, certain measures can help reduce the risk and manage symptoms:
-
Regular Exercise: Maintain a balanced fitness routine to keep the spine strong and flexible.
