Spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spaces in your spine, can compress your spinal cord and the nerve roots coming from each vertebra. A common cause is age-related changes in your spine. Symptoms include back and/or neck pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the arms and legs. Treatments include self-medication, physical therapy, medication, injections, and surgery. Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of one or more spaces in your spine. Less space in your spine reduces the amount of space available for your spinal cord and the nerves that branch off from your spinal cord. The contracted space can cause irritation, compression or pinching of the spinal cord or nerves, which can lead to back pain and sciatica. Spinal stenosis usually develops slowly over time. It is most often caused by osteoarthritis, or the "wear and tear" changes that naturally occur in your spine as you age. Because of this, you may not have any symptoms for a long time, although some changes may be seen on X-rays or other imaging tests if they are done for another reason. Depending on where and how severe your spinal stenosis is, you may experience pain, numbness, tingling, and/or weakness in your neck, back, arms, legs, hands, or feet.
