Find Relief from Spinal Stenosis and Reclaim Your Mobility
Spinal stenosis is a common but often painful condition that affects the spine, narrowing the spaces within the spinal canal. This narrowing can compress the spinal cord and nerves, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the neck, back, arms, or legs. If you’re struggling with these symptoms, Tulsa Pain Consultants offers expert diagnosis and effective treatment options for spinal stenosis in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and surrounding areas.
Recognize the Symptoms of Spinal Stenosis
Early detection and treatment are key to managing spinal stenosis effectively. Be aware of these common signs:
- Back or Neck Pain: This persistent or intermittent pain can worsen with activity or certain positions.
- Radiating Pain: Pain can radiate from the spine to other areas, like the buttocks and legs (lumbar stenosis) or arms (cervical stenosis).
- Numbness and Tingling: You may experience loss of sensation or a “pins and needles” feeling in your extremities.
- Muscle Weakness: Weakness in your arms or legs can affect your ability to grip objects, walk, or maintain balance.
- Difficulty Walking: You may experience pain or discomfort when walking or standing for long periods, often relieved by sitting down.
- Loss of Balance: In severe cases, spinal stenosis can affect your balance and coordination.
Understanding the Causes of Spinal Stenosis
Several factors can contribute to the development of spinal stenosis, including:
- Age-Related Degeneration: The natural aging process can lead to wear and tear on the spine, resulting in the narrowing of the spinal canal.
- Herniated Discs: When a disc bulges or ruptures, it can push into the spinal canal, compressing nerves.
- Bone Spurs: These bony overgrowths on the vertebrae can also narrow the space for the spinal cord and nerves.
- Thickened Ligaments: Ligaments in the spine can thicken over time, contributing to spinal stenosis.
- Spinal Injuries: Injuries to the spine, like fractures or dislocations, can cause stenosis.
- Congenital Stenosis: Some individuals are born with a naturally narrow spinal canal.
