Overview
The symptoms of spinal stenosis usually develop in the old age, and start with symptoms such as pain and cramping in neck, back and legs. Common complications of spinal stenosis include: Numbness of limbs, Paralysis of limbs, Weakness of limbs, Obesity due lack of activity, Bladder or bowel incontinence,Depression, and other psychological problems. Prognosis in patients with spinal stenosis who initially treated with medical or physical therapy is variable. Among treated patients without surgery in one study, about 50% remain unchanged, 25% improve, and 25% worsen (mean follow-up was 49 months, range 10 to 103 months). Outcome in patients treated surgically is not significantly better rather than nonsurgically treated patients.
