The bony encroachment approach

Fort Collins Whiplash treatment clinic again delivers another tidbit of information for the causes of lower back pain. Any condition that could result in movement or growth of the vertebrae of the lumbar spine can limit the space or simply called encroachment for the adjacent spinal cord and its nerves. There are several causes for bony encroachment of the spinal nerves can include foraminal narrowing, spondylolisthesis and spinal stenosis. Spinal nerve compression in these conditions can then lead to sciatica pain that will radiate down to the lower extremities. The spinal stenosis can cause lower– extremity pains that could worsen with walking.
