Understanding Spinal Stenosis: Causes and Effects

Spinal stenosis is an unnatural narrowing of the space provided in the spinal column for the spinal cord. As the spinal canal grows narrower, it can impinge upon the spinal cord tissue. This compression can cause nerve signals to misfire or fail to reach their destinations. Some of the common causes of spinal stenosis include:

    • Bulging or herniated discs - A bulging or herniated disc can press against the spinal cord tissue.
    • Bone spurs - One of the complications of spinal osteoarthritis is the development of bony overgrowths, known as bone spurs, which can compress the spinal cord.
    • Spinal misalignment - An acute injury or chronic alignment problem can cause vertebrae to intrude on the spinal canal.
    • Ligament changes - If your spinal ligaments become stiff and swollen, they can create spinal nerve compression.

Spinal stenosis can take place in the cervical spine, but it is a more common occurrence in the lumbar spine. Lumbar spinal stenosis can cause pain, tingling, numbness, or loss of function in the legs and feet, as well as back pain. Cervical spinal stenosis causes neck pain instead of back pain, and its neurological symptoms afflict the arms and hands. It can even cause loss of bladder or bowel control.
