Lets Understand stenosis

Lumbar canal stenosis is a condition where the channel running through the lower part of the spine (lumbar canal) becomes excessively narrowed (stenosis). Stenosis is due mainly to degenerative wear-and-tear, over many years, causing a thickening of the various bones, joints and ligaments that form the spinal canal. Degenerative changes are normal in adult life. They are more likely to cause the symptoms of lumbar canal stenosis, however, in someone who is born with a smaller than average lumbar canal. The narrowing usually affects one or two vertebrae, and sometimes can involve up to five “levels” in the lumbar spine.


Causes

  • Arthritis
  • Falls
  • Accidents
  • Wear and tear on the spine’s bones and joints

Symptoms

  • Combination of back pain and symptoms in the legs.
  • The symptoms in the legs indicate that there is pressure on the spinal nerves as they pass through the point(s) of narrowing in the lumbar spine, resulting in either sciatica (sharp pains shooting down the back of one or both legs), or claudication (heavy, dull aching, with pins and needles in the feet and legs brought on by standing or walking).
  • These symptoms usually start when you are standing or walking. Often, the symptoms get better if you sit, crouch or lie in the fetal position (on your side with your knees tucked up to your chest).
  • It’s thought that these positions “open” the lumbar canal and take the pressure off the nerves that go to the legs.
  • In severe cases, stenosis can cause partial or complete bowel or bladder incontinence.

Diagnosis

 

The diagnosis can be made with a CT scan or MRI scan of the lumbar spine.An MRI scan is a simple and safe test, similar in many ways to a CT scan. MRI use a technique known as magnetic resonance imaging. No radiation is involved. There is no need to be admitted to hospital and usually no need for injections, although people prone to claustrophobia may find the examination stressful and should discuss their anxiety with medical staff at the time of the test. People with heart pacemakers cannot have an MRI.

Prevention Plan

For six weeks when you get home, the most important thing to do is rest. Your wound needs time to heal, internally as well as externally. Avoid undue bending and lifting. Minimise sitting to essentials such as eating and toileting. It is advisable to avoid driving, and even sitting as a passenger, in a car.

Schedule two good walks of about 15 minutes each per day. Swimming is excellent exercise after spinal surgery but you should wait to begin until after your post-operative review, which is usually six weeks after surgery.

In most cases, the symptoms caused by the disc prolapse will have eased within six weeks of surgery but this varies greatly from person to person.
