What are the causes of spinal stenosis? The most
common cause of spinal stenosis is aging.
Degenerative processes occur throughout your body
as it ages. Tissues in your spine may start to
thicken, and bones may get bigger, compressing
the nerves. Conditions like osteoarthritis and
rheumatoid arthritis may also contribute to
spinal stenosis. The inflammation they cause can
put pressure on your spinal cord. Other
conditions that can cause stenosis include spine
defects present at birth, a naturally narrow
spinal cord, spinal curvature, or scoliosis,
Pagets disease of the bone, which causes
abnormal bone destruction and regrowth, bone
tumors ,achondroplasia, which is a type of
dwarfism.

Treatment for Spinal Stenosis There are various
treatments available for spinal stenosis
depending on how severe the patient's symptoms
are and underlying medical conditions. In the
majority of cases, it can be treated without
surgery. In some cases, conservative,
non-surgical treatment (such as medication and
physical therapy) may provide sufficient nerve
decompression and pain relief, but surgery is
occasionally required to provide the room
necessary for the nerves to travel unencumbered.
Initial treatments include anti-inflammatory
medications. These medications help reduce the
inflammation and swelling around the nerves being
compression. Epidural steroid (cortisone)
injections can provide a larger dose of
medications to reduce inflammation directly to
the site of nerve compression. Physical therapy
can help strengthen the muscles surrounding the
spinal column and take some of the pressure off
the spine.
