What Is Cervical Stenosis?

2. Spinal stenosis
Spinal stenosis is a condition where the space within the spine becomes too narrow. As this happens, it can put a lot of pressure on the spinal cord, and this can be very problematic for patients with the condition. The condition usually occurs in the patient’s neck, or in the lower part of their back.
The severity of the condition can vary from person to person, depending largely on how narrow the spinal canal has become. It is a condition that will need to be addressed, and the condition can lead to permanent damage. Surgery may be deemed necessary in some cases.
