Symptoms

The symptoms of spinal stenosis can vary depending on the location and severity of the condition. In the lumbar spine, individuals may experience pain or cramping in the legs, numbness or tingling, weakness in the legs, and difficulty walking or standing for extended periods. In the cervical spine, symptoms may include neck pain, numbness or weakness in the arms or hands, and in severe cases, difficulty with balance and coordination. It is important to seek medical attention if you experience any of these symptoms, as early diagnosis and treatment can help manage the condition and prevent further complications.

In some cases, spinal stenosis can also lead to bladder or bowel dysfunction, sexual dysfunction, and in severe cases, paralysis. It is important to discuss any new or worsening symptoms with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of action.
