Fominal stenosis, also known as foraminal stenosis, is a condition characterized by the narrowing of the foramina, which are the openings through which spinal nerves exit the spinal column. This narrowing can lead to compression of the spinal nerves, causing symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the affected areas of the body. It is often caused by factors such as degenerative disc disease, bone spurs, or herniated discs. Treatment options may include physical therapy, medications, or surgical interventions to relieve nerve compression.
