What is spinal stenosis?

Spinal stenosis develops when there is narrowing of the spinal canal. This narrowing may be caused by mechanical dysfunctions or by ailments in the aging spine. Spinal Stenosis may cause back pain, limping, and a loss of sensation in the legs. Stenosis is a condition usually due to degeneration. It may be asymptomatic for years without causing pain or discomfort, but any type of trauma, including a fall, may trigger characteristic stenosis pain.

Factors leading to spinal stenosis

• Hypertrophied Ligaments
• Growing Infection
• Abscess
• Congenital or Developmental Anomaly
• Degenerative Changes
• Vertebral Fractures or Dislocations
• Spinal Cord Tumor

Signs and symptoms of spinal stenosis

• Pain triggered by walking or prolonged standing and usually improved by sitting in a forward flexed position
• Numbness , Tingling, and temperature (hot or cold) feelings in the legs
• Muscle Spasms
• Muscle Weakness
