New Treatment for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
In the U.S., 1 out of every 1000 individuals age 65+ and about 5 of every 1000 persons older than 50 years, have symptoms of spinal stenosis. Lumbar spinal stenosis can lead to back and leg pain. Common symptoms include:
Pain while walking
Numbness or a “tingling” feeling in buttocks or legs
Weakness and/or loss of balance
Aching, dull back pain spreading to the legs
Decreased endurance during physical activities
Pain relief experienced when sitting or leaning over slightly
Symptoms develop slowly over time, and often become worse due to standing and walking. This can affect many activities included in daily life.
