What are <strong>the</strong> causes of spinal <strong>stenosis</strong>?<br />

The most common cause of spinal <strong>stenosis</strong> is aging. Degenerative processes<br />

occur throughout your body as it ages. Tissues in your spine may start to<br />

thicken, and bones may get bigger, compressing <strong>the</strong> nerves. Conditions like<br />

osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis may also contribute to spinal<br />

<strong>stenosis</strong>. The inflammation <strong>the</strong>y cause can put pressure on your spinal cord.<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r conditions that can cause <strong>stenosis</strong> include spine defects present at<br />

birth, a naturally narrow spinal cord, spinal curvature, or scoliosis, Paget’s<br />

disease of <strong>the</strong> bone, which causes abnormal bone destruction and regrowth,<br />

bone tumors ,achondroplasia, which is a type of dwarfism.


Treatment <strong>for</strong> <strong>Spinal</strong> Stenosis:<br />

There are various <strong>treatment</strong>s available <strong>for</strong> spinal <strong>stenosis</strong> depending on how<br />

severe <strong>the</strong> patient's symptoms are and underlying medical conditions. In <strong>the</strong><br />

majority of cases, it can be treated without surgery. In some cases, conservative,<br />

non-surgical <strong>treatment</strong> (such as medication and physical <strong>the</strong>rapy) may provide<br />

sufficient nerve decompression and pain relief, but surgery is occasionally<br />

required to provide <strong>the</strong> room necessary <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> nerves to travel unencumbered.<br />

Initial <strong>treatment</strong>s include anti-inflammatory medications. These medications<br />

help reduce <strong>the</strong> inflammation and swelling around <strong>the</strong> nerves being compression.<br />

Epidural steroid (cortisone) injections can provide a larger dose of medications to<br />

reduce inflammation directly to <strong>the</strong> site of nerve compression. Physical <strong>the</strong>rapy<br />

can help streng<strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> muscles surrounding <strong>the</strong> spinal column and take some of<br />

<strong>the</strong> pressure off <strong>the</strong> spine.
