Spinal Stenosis

Spinal Stenosis Health Center

Spinal stenosis generally develops slowly in the later year's of a person life, usually past fifty. For lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms include leg pain (sciatica) with walking, as well as tingling, weakness or numbness in the legs. With cervical stenosis, arm pain is the typical symptom. For cervical stenosis with myelopathy, difficulty with coordination often occurs. In many cases, the only effective treatment option is decompression surgery.
