Cervical stenosis is a condition that affects the spinal canal in the neck region. It occurs when the spinal canal becomes narrow, which puts pressure on the spinal cord and the nerves that branch out from it. This pressure can cause a variety of symptoms, including pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms, shoulders, and legs. In this chapter, we will explore the symptoms and causes of cervical stenosis in greater detail.
Symptoms of Cervical Stenosis
The symptoms of cervical stenosis can vary depending on the severity of the condition and the location of the affected area of the spinal canal. Some common symptoms of cervical stenosis include:
Neck pain: This is a common symptom of cervical stenosis, and it may be present in the back of the neck or on one or both sides.
Tingling or numbness: Cervical stenosis can cause sensations of tingling or numbness in the arms, hands, legs, or feet.
Weakness: In some cases, cervical stenosis can cause weakness in the arms, shoulders, and/or legs. This can make it difficult to lift objects, climb stairs, or perform other activities.
Balance problems: Cervical stenosis can affect the balance and coordination, leading to an increased risk of falls.
Bladder or bowel problems: In severe cases, cervical stenosis can cause problems with bladder or bowel control.
Causes of Cervical Stenosis
There are several different factors that can contribute to the development of cervical stenosis. Some of the most common causes include:
Age-related changes: As we age, the discs between the vertebrae in our spine can become thinner and less flexible. This can cause the spinal canal to become narrower, leading to cervical stenosis.
Herniated discs: A herniated disc occurs when the soft, gel-like center of a spinal disc protrudes through the tougher outer layer.
