Spinal stenosisoccurs when the spinal cord in the neck (cervical spine) or the spinal nerve roots in the lower back (lumbar spine) are compressed. Symptoms oflumbar stenosisoften include leg pain (坐骨神经痛) and leg tingling, weakness, or numbness. Arm pain is a typical symptom of颈椎椎管狭窄. For cervical spinal stenosis with myelopathy, difficulty with coordination often occurs.

狭窄的治疗包括非手术的选项(锻炼,消炎药,注射硬膜外和活动修改)或背部手术。
