Understanding Spinal Stenosis
At Advanced Chiropractic & Spine Center in Souderton, PA, we specialize in diagnosing and treating spinal stenosis—a condition characterized by the narrowing of the spinal canal, which can lead to pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms or legs.
Spinal stenosis occurs when the spaces within your spine narrow, putting pressure on the nerves that travel through the spine. This condition most commonly affects the lower back (lumbar stenosis) and the neck (cervical stenosis).
Common Causes of Spinal Stenosis
- Degenerative Changes: Age-related wear and tear, such as osteoarthritis, can lead to the development of bone spurs that narrow the spinal canal.
- Herniated Discs: Discs that become damaged may protrude and press on the spinal cord or nerves.
- Thickened Ligaments: Over time, ligaments can thicken and bulge into the spinal canal.
- Spinal Injuries: Trauma to the spine can cause dislocations or fractures, leading to narrowing of the canal.
Symptoms of Spinal Stenosis
Individuals with spinal stenosis may experience:
- Pain in the lower back or neck
- Numbness or tingling in the extremities
- Weakness in the arms or legs
- Difficulty walking or maintaining balance
