Conditions that Benefit from Spinal Stenosis Surgery
Spinal stenosis occurs when something happens to cause the open space in your spine to become narrower. If it becomes too narrow, you feel pain, even when you stay still. Your Manhattan pain management doctor may recommend spinal stenosis surgery.
The most common form of spinal stenosis is lumbar stenosis, which causes pain and discomfort in your lower back. Spinal stenosis can also affect your neck, which is called cervical spinal stenosis. Conditions that cause your doctor to recommend surgery include:
- Bone spurs. Arthritis in the neck or back can cause an overgrowth of bone, called bone spurs, into the spinal canal.
- Thickened ligaments. Over time, the ligaments can become thickened and stiff. These are the strong cords that hold the bones of your spine together. Stiff ligaments may pressure your spinal cord.
- Herniated discs. The discs between your vertebrae are designed to provide support and cushioning. They can dry out with age, and the softer nucleus of a disc then pushes through the outer edge and toward the spinal column. This is also known as a ruptured disc or a slipped disc.
- Spinal injuries. When your spine is injured in a car accident, sports injury or other type of trauma, vertebrae can be dislocated or fractured. As nearby tissue swells, it puts pressure on the spinal cord.
- In rare cases, abnormal growth can form inside the spinal column, causing the area to narrow and stressing your spinal cord.
- Congenital spinal stenosis. Some people are born with a small spinal canal, causing pain from an early age.
