Her spinal canal stenosis indicates that the area her spinal cord passes is becoming narrower. The compression may in turn apply force to the nerves that run down her legs, and consequently, she may have pain, weakness, or even numbness. Depending on the specific case, treatment may involve physical therapy, medications for pain, or in rare cases, surgery to relieve the pressure on the nerves.

You have a condition called spinal canal stenosis. This means the space around your spinal cord is narrow. The narrowing puts pressure on the nerves in your spine. This can lead to leg pain, numbness or weakness. Aging and regular use of the spine cause wear and tear. Treatment options include physical therapy exercises, medications, or surgery in severe cases.

Your spine seems problematic; sudden back pain isn't unusual. A slightly crooked spine can cause it. Muscle strain, poor posture, injury - these factors trigger discomfort. Use hot/cold packs, gentle stretches, rest to ease pain. If it persists or worsens, consult a neurologist for guidance.
