Spinal Stenosis Relief in Council Bluffs
Advanced Care for Spinal Narrowing
Spinal stenosis can make every movement painful as the spaces within your spine narrow and put pressure on the nerves that travel through it. This condition most commonly affects the neck and lower back, causing pain and numbness and limiting your ability to enjoy daily activities. Total Care Chiropractic offers targeted care to help patients in Council Bluffs manage symptoms and improve their quality of life.
How This Condition Impacts The Body
Your spine houses and protects the spinal cord and nerve roots. When the spaces in your spine narrow due to age-related changes, bone spurs, thickened ligaments, or herniated discs, these nerves become compressed. This compression leads to various symptoms depending on which part of the spine is affected and how severe the narrowing has become.
Signs You May Have A Problem
If you experience persistent back or neck pain that worsens with standing or walking, you might be dealing with spinal stenosis. Other common signs include numbness or tingling in your arms or legs, weakness in your limbs, and problems with balance. Some patients also report cramping in their legs when walking, which improves when sitting down or leaning forward.
