Foraminal Narrowing
Foraminal narrowing or stenosis may arise without any disc herniation. The majority of symptoms are usually caused by one nerve root on one side.
Typically, the condition is characterized by the following:
- The pain develops slowly
- The pain may develop over many years
- The pain is not continuous
- The pain is related to an activity or position
Unlike many other back or neck conditions, most conservative treatments for foraminal stenosis, such as pain medications, are unlikely to be of much benefit. Most often, patients choose either activity modification or back surgery to relieve pressure in the nerve root from foraminal stenosis.
