Are you suffering from spinal stenosis in Frisco? Spinal stenosis is the condition when an area in your spine begins to narrow and the narrowing puts pressure on spinal nerves or directly on the spinal cord. Often times, spinal stenosis can cause pain or numbness in your legs, back, neck, shoulders or arms, and cause problems with bladder or bowel function. Mild symptoms of spinal stenosis are often times helped by conservative, non-surgical treatments. In more severe cases, surgery may be recommended.

  • Aging

TREATING SPINAL STENOSIS

In many cases, conservative non-surgical treatments can effectively treat spinal stenosis. For more severe cases, surgery may be recommended. Acute loss of bowel or bladder function is usually considered a medical emergency and requires immediate surgical intervention. Dr. Haq has the experience and expertise to properly diagnose the condition and recommend conservative non-surgical treatments. Conservative treatments include:

  • Physical therapy and stretching programs
  • Ice or heat
  • Anti-inflammatory drugs
  • Prescription pain medications
  • Epidural steroid injections
  • TENS
