LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS

As a result of age, intervertebral discs often become less spongy and smaller in height. The decreased support of these discs can cause the spinal cord to narrow and compress the surrounding nerves, causing pain and weakness in the lower back and legs. This condition can be treated with medications, steroids, physical therapy or surgery.
