Yes, definitely; surgery should only be used as a last resort when absolutely neccesary. Stenosis physical therapy is quite common: http://www.spineuniverse.com/conditions/spinal-stenosis/physical-therapy-spinal-stenosis
Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the passage around the spinal cord in the back. It is caused by various damages to the back including arthritis or injury. Treatments include medicine for pain, physical therapy and exercise, and surgery.
Conservative therapies (physical therapy, medications, steroidal injections) may be attempted first to limit inflammation and control pain, but these will not address the underlying problem within the spine. Patients with severe neurological deficit or pain that is not relieved through non-operative treatments may be eligible for spinal stenosis surgery.
If you broke your spine with or without scoliosis you will need spine surgery. You will also need to take physical therapy to help strengthen your spine after the surgery.
No
Physical therapy and prescribed exercises can reduce spinal stenosis pain without medication. In severe cases surgery may be necessary.
Yes, although surgery is usually not the first consideration. In most cases of people suffering from spinal stenosis, the usual treatment is either physical therapy, pain killers, or both. Physical therapy will help the patient build flexibility and stability in the spine, which will better condition the spine to handle the spinal stenosis. Pain killers will, obviously, help subside the pain. Patients may be able to get by with over the counter drugs like Tylenol or Advil, but if the pain is too much, a doctor may prescribe something stronger such as Vicodin. If all else fails, then surgery should be considered. Nowadays, surgery to fix spinal stenosis is a quick and minimally invasive procedure that should only require a few hours of recovery. It has a very high success rate as well.
The spinal canal gets narrower and presses down on the nerves in your spine. There aren't any scientifically proven cures, but you can manage it by using painkillers and physical therapy. Some surgeries can be useful, the most common being the removal of certain vertebrae (known as a laminectomy).
Severe spinal stenosis occurs when part of your spine narrows, putting pressure on your spinal cord or nerves. That pressure can cause pain, numbness or weakness in your back, neck, shoulders or limbs. Treatment for spinal stenosis will involve specialists in neurology, orthopedics and physical rehabilitation.
Stenosis of the spine is caused by the spine narrowing in certain areas mostly due to age. I would definitely recommend seeing a doctor as x-rays or and mri will be required to accurately tell.
Stenosis of the spine is a issue caused by severe aging. It often times results in severe aging and stooping in the back. Sadly the only thing that can fix this is a severe surgery.
Calcium deposits of the spinal cord is known as stenosis. Stenosis is an arthritis of the spine when there is enough buildup to cause impingement.
No. Chelation therapy is generally considered to be a scam and is not a legitimate therapy for anything.
