What Is Cervical Stenosis?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
9. Symptoms
Cervical stenosis doesn’t always cause symptoms. When it does, however, they will usually start off very mild. As the condition worsens, so the patient’s symptoms will also get gradually worse. In cases of cervical stenosis, the symptoms will tend to be focused around the neck area.
The condition can cause pain in the neck and elsewhere. As nerves travelling to other parts of the body become compressed, so the patient will begin to feeling tingling and other sensations in their feet, hands, and limbs. It can cause problems with walking, while it can also cause bowel and bladder dysfunction in the more severe cases.
