Lumbar Canal Stenosis

Lumbar canal stenosis, a condition characterized by narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back, leading to nerve compression and associated pain. At Aster Whitefield Hospital, we prioritize non-surgical interventions whenever feasible, aiming to alleviate discomfort, enhance mobility, and prevent further narrowing.

Non-surgical treatments:

Medications: Our specialists may prescribe tailored medications to address various aspects of lumbar canal stenosis, including pain management, muscle relaxation, and inflammation reduction.

Physical Therapy: Integral to our approach, personalized exercise programs focus on strengthening core and back muscles, improving flexibility, and enhancing overall spinal health.

Injections: Corticosteroid injections offer targeted pain relief by reducing inflammation around the narrowed canal, providing temporary alleviation.

Activity Modification: Doctors may suggest modifications to daily activities to minimize strain on the spine and promote healing.

Surgical intervention: If conservative measures fall short, our skilled spine surgeons specialize in minimally invasive procedures for lumbar canal stenosis, offering advantages such as smaller incisions, quicker recovery times, and reduced post-surgical discomfort.

Explore some common surgical options we offer:

Lumbar Decompression: This procedure involves creating more space in the spinal canal by removing a small portion of bone or ligament, relieving pressure on the nerves. Our surgeons utilize minimally invasive techniques for optimal outcomes.

Lumbar Fusion (potentially combined with decompression): In cases of spinal instability alongside stenosis, lumbar fusion may be recommended to enhance stability. Minimally invasive fusion techniques are preferred whenever possible.

Personalized Care at Aster Whitefield Hospital :

At Aster Whitefield Hospital, patient safety is paramount, particularly considering that lumbar canal stenosis often affects elderly individuals. We prioritize thorough pre-anesthetic assessments conducted by our Neuroanesthetists, who collaborate with cardiologists, Geriatric medicine specialists, pulmonologists, and other relevant experts to ensure comprehensive evaluation and personalized care.

Treatment options such as minimally invasive internal decompression, TLIF, OLIF, long-term deformity correction, fusion, and decompression surgeries are meticulously chosen based on each patient's unique requirements. Our approach involves detailed discussions with patients and consideration of pre-anesthetic checkup (PAC) reports to tailor treatment plans accordingly.

This stepwise management strategy not only enhances patient safety but also ensures that surgeries for elderly patients remain a secure and effective spine procedure. Trust Aster Whitefield Hospital for individualized care that prioritizes your safety and well-being.
