What Is Cervical Stenosis?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
3. Two Types
Spinal stenosis can be broken down into two main categories. One of these is lumbar stenosis, which means that the condition is affecting the lower part of the patient’s spinal cord. The other type of spinal stenosis is cervical stenosis, which means that it is the part of the spine located in the patient’s neck that is affected.
Patients can find the symptoms of spinal stenosis will affect different parts of their body according to which type they have. In cases of cervical stenosis, it tends to be the patient’s neck that is affected, although symptoms are experienced elsewhere also.
