It is a pain that occurs in the body especially when you get stressed as you get older.
The lower back and knees are marked by degenerative changes, so they become body parts that intuit aging.In particular, spinal disease seems to be a gateway that must pass through as you get older so that everyone can experience it at least once after entering the middle-aged.Usually, I think it’s herniated intervertebral disc when back pain starts, but there is a high possibility of stenosis.In addition, it is not acutely visited like a disease caused by an infection or virus, but is a degenerative disease that gradually starts and worsens the symptoms.Today, I’m going to look into the disease and see if a spinal stenosis procedure is necessary.
What kind of disease is spinal stenosis?

In our bodies, the spine acts as a pillar of the body.If there is a problem with this part, it becomes difficult to move the body, so disc or stenosis causes great inconvenience in life.In particular, stenosis is confused with herniation of the intervertebral disk, but there is a difference in the two factors.There is a space called herniated intervertebral disk in the spine, and long nerves are located behind it.Depending on some factor, the surrounding bones or ligaments stretch unnecessarily and compresses the nerves.In the back, bones and ligaments seem to suppress nerves, but when viewed from the front, the herniated intervertebral disk comes out and tightens the nerves.
What are the suspected symptoms?When it comes to situations where spinal stenosis requires surgery, I think you will have back pain because it is a problem on the lower back of the spine, but that’s not the case at all.The nerves that extend at the waist are almost connected to the legs, not the waist, and can be seen as controlling the lower body.Therefore, when this disease occurs, it causes hip pain and chain pain to the thighs, calves, and soles of the feet.Also, when I start walking, I feel like my butt is falling out, so I take a break and walk several times.Above all, if the back pain starts for no reason and continues to disappear, you must see a doctor whether stenosis has occurred.Can it be diagnosed by radiography?I think you know that disc herniation is a disease in which tissue called disc herniation, which is located between bones, penetrates through the membrane and presses nerves.Therefore, it is believed that stenosis can be easily identified by X-ray, but the disease shows various symptoms due to narrowing of nerves, so radiation tests alone cannot clearly examine the condition.MRI tests are also needed to determine how narrow the nerves have become and where they are under pressure if the visible symptoms are suspected of stenosis and have difficulty walking.Is surgical correction absolutely necessary?In the event of stenosis, drugs, injections, procedures, and surgical correction are considered for improvement.It doesn’t mean that spinal stenosis or surgical correction is necessary from the beginning just because it develops.Usually, in the early stages, the nerve compression range is limited and localized, so we prescribe medicine first.Usually, I think it’s only a temporary expedient based on the prescription of medicine, but it’s not.Stenosis is a degenerative disease and cannot be completely cured like other diseases, so measures should be taken to prevent the progress from getting worse, and prevention of this deterioration should be considered important first.Drugs cannot narrow and spread the compressed nerves, but they help improve fine blood flow and reduce neuropathic pain, so it is a basic treatment necessary for improvement.Next, I can talk about injection therapy, and many people are worried that frequent injections may harm their health because it is steroid injection.You don’t have to worry about it three times within six months because the amount of medicine injected is very small.In the case of spinal stenosis, balloon dilatation neuroplasty is mainly performed, and it is an improvement method that relaxes the nerve adhesion range by injecting it into the target area using a long catheter.Only the coccyx is anesthetized, and it ends soon, so daily life is possible immediately, making it one of the most popular procedures.Surgical procedures that require incision are not often needed beyond spinal stenosis.This method is applied when complete daily life is almost impossible due to urinary disorders or walking disorders due to stenosis.This disease is close to chronic and constantly worsens if action is not taken, so various treatments are considered depending on the condition after diagnosis.However, most of the symptoms have progressed considerably and it is difficult to walk before visiting the hospital.Long-term neglect causes neurodegeneration, so if your legs hurt while walking and you have hip pain, please see a doctor quickly.Surgical procedures that require incision are not often needed beyond spinal stenosis.This method is applied when complete daily life is
