Subluxation stenosis of neural canal - what does this mean

Subluxation stenosis of neural canal is a condition in which the neural canal of the spine is narrowed due to the displacement of the vertebrae, resulting in compression of the spinal cord. this can cause pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the affected area, as well as difficulty in movement.

What happens during the disease - subluxation stenosis of neural canal

Subluxation stenosis of the neural canal is a condition in which the spinal nerve root is compressed due to a misalignment of the vertebrae. this misalignment causes the space between the vertebrae to narrow, resulting in pressure on the nerve root and causing pain, numbness, tingling, and/or weakness in the affected area. in some cases, the pressure can be severe enough to cause damage to the nerve root and cause permanent disability.

Subluxation stenosis of neural canal - Prevention

Subluxation stenosis of neural canal can be prevented by maintaining good posture, avoiding activities that involve repetitive strain, and strengthening the muscles that support the spine. additionally, wearing a back brace or support belt when engaging in activities that involve heavy lifting can help to prevent this condition.
