Spine Canal Stenosis is a condition in which the spaces within the spinal canal become narrowed, putting pressure on the spinal cord and surrounding nerves. This narrowing is often caused by age-related changes, such as thickened ligaments, herniated discs, bone spurs, or arthritis, but it may also result from injury or congenital factors.

Symptoms can vary depending on the severity and location of the stenosis. Common signs include back or neck pain, numbness, tingling, weakness in the arms or legs, and difficulty walking or maintaining balance. In advanced cases, patients may also experience bladder or bowel dysfunction.
