Spinal stenosis is a medical condition where the spinal canal, which houses the spinal cord and nerve roots, becomes narrowed. This narrowing can lead to compression of the spinal cord or nerve roots, causing a range of symptoms such as persistent pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness. These symptoms can occur in various parts of the body, including the back, legs, and arms, and may worsen over time.

Spinal decompression surgery is a specialized procedure aimed at alleviating pressure on the spinal cord or nerves caused by conditions such as spinal stenosis, herniated discs, or bone spurs. By creating more space within the spinal canal, this surgery aims to relieve symptoms including chronic pain, numbness, tingling, and muscle weakness that may significantly impact daily life.
