Symptoms of Spinal Stenosis
Spinal stenosis is often caused by the wear and tear of aging, but it can also result from spinal injuries, herniated discs, or abnormal growths. Recognizing the symptoms of spinal stenosis is crucial for early detection and effective pain management. The symptoms may vary depending on the location and severity of the stenosis but commonly include:
- Lower Back Pain – Persistent or intermittent pain in the lumbar region.
- Leg Pain and Numbness – Pain, tingling, or numbness in the legs, often described as a burning or cramping sensation.
- Difficulty Walking— A feeling of heaviness or weakness in the legs can make walking or standing for prolonged periods challenging.
- Neck Pain— If the stenosis is in the cervical region, it can cause neck pain that radiates to the shoulders and arms.
- Pain Radiating – Pain that radiates down the legs or arms, also known as radiculopathy.
- Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction – In severe cases, spinal stenosis can affect bladder and bowel control.
If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's essential to seek professional medical advice. Delaying treatment can lead to increased pain and decreased mobility, significantly impacting your quality of life.
How Greater Maryland Pain Management Can Help
Comprehensive Evaluation
Non-Invasive Procedures
We pride ourselves on offering non-invasive procedures that provide effective pain relief with minimal recovery time. Our non-surgical treatments for spinal stenosis include:
- Epidural Steroid Injections – For more severe cases, we may recommend epidural steroid injections. These injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the affected area of your spine, reducing inflammation and providing significant pain relief.
- Physical Therapy – Customized exercise programs designed to strengthen the muscles supporting the spine, improve flexibility, and reduce pain.
- Nerve Blocks—Nerve blocks are another noninvasive option for treating spinal stenosis pain. By injecting anesthetic medication near the affected nerves, we can effectively block pain signals and provide immediate relief.
- Chiropractic Care – Gentle spinal adjustments to relieve pressure on the nerves and improve spinal alignment.
