Spinal Stenosis

Free Consultation

At Spine and Joint Centers Of America, our commitment to our patients is to make sure they are educated and informed about their conditions as well as the treatment options available to help them find relief. When it comes to spinal stenosis, it is important to understand that there are potentially many factors that can contribute to spinal stenosis.

Spinal stenosis, also called canal stenosis, is the end result of other conditions contributing to narrowing of the canals that house the spinal cord and spinal nerve roots. The word “stenosis” itself is derived from the Greek word “steno” which means “narrow”. When considering a diagnosis of spinal stenosis it is important to look at what is causing the stenosis.

Conditions such as degenerative disc disease, bone spurs, bulging/herniated discs, and spondylolisthesis can all contribute to narrowing of the spinal canals.

Symptoms a patient may experience if they are suffering from spinal stenosis can include:

Pain that is local to the mid back, low back, or neck
Numbness or tingling
Radicular symptoms such as pain shooting into the extremities (shoulders, arms, hands, legs, hips, and feet)
Weakness or atrophy in extremities
