What Is Cervical Stenosis?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
6. Paget’s Disease
Paget’s disease is a condition that affects the natural process of new bone replacing old bone. Over time, it can cause problems like misshapen bones and fragile bones that break more easily than healthy bones do. Under some circumstances, these conditions can result in cervical stenosis.
Another cause is bone spurs. These are growths that can arise due to the way the body replaces bone that is lost through wear and tear. Bone spurs are growths of bone that project from the main bone. The spurs can irritate and damage surrounding tissues, and are sometimes a cause of cervical stenosis.
