Lumbar stenosis typically involves peripheral nerves and their nerve roots, such as your sciatic nerve, which can lead to back pain and problems in the legs. On the other hand, cervical stenosis may directly affect your spinal cord. This condition is called myelopathy and carries far more serious consequences.
Cervical foraminal stenosis, then, refers to the constriction or narrowing of a foramina. When a foramen becomes too narrow, it can result in pressure on the nerve root, causing neck pain and other symptoms.
Cervical stenosis is a common cause of neck pain. It happens as there are changes with the vertebrae of the neck and the joints between those vertebrae. Bone spurs begin to form, causing cervical spinal stenosis. As the bone spurs grow, the spinal canal narrows and put pressure on the spinal cord and nerves.

Symptoms of neck (cervical) spinal stenosis include:Neck pain.Numbness or tingling in the arm, hand, leg or foot. ... Weakness or clumsiness in the arm, hand, leg or foot.Problems with balance.Loss of function in hands, like having problems writing or buttoning shirts.Loss of bladder or bowel control (in severe cases).
Treatment of Cervical Spinal Stenosis Mild stenosis can be treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, posture improvement, and physical therapy. But more serious cases will require spinal surgery to relieve the compression.
There are three main types: central spinal stenosis, lateral recess stenosis, and foraminal stenosis, each of which can happen in any region of the spine (i.e. cervical, thoracic, or lumbar).
The two types of spinal stenosis are lumbar stenosis and cervical stenosis. Lumbar spinal stenosis is the more common of the two, but cervical spinal stenosis is often more dangerous since it involves compression of the spinal cord.
Cervical stenosis is one of the most serious results of this degeneration. Also called cervical spinal stenosis, or simply spinal stenosis, the condition is most common in adults ages 30-50 and affects about twice as many men as women.
Spinal stenosis may rarely involve both cervical and lumbar spines. An alternative surgical strategy used for the treatment of combined cervical and lumbar spinal stenosis is presented. Two cases with symptomatic combined stenosis of the cervical and lumbar spinal canal are described.
Surgical treatment of spinal stenosis is indicated if non-operative care fails or if there is neurologic loss or deficit, especially if the neurologic loss is progressive. Examples of typical neurologic loss or deficit include symptoms of numbness, weakness, loss of coordination or tingling in the arm or leg.
Diseases such as arthritis and scoliosis can cause spinal stenosis, too. Symptoms might appear gradually or not at all. They include pain in your neck or back, numbness, weakness or pain in your arms or legs, and foot problems.
Narrowing of the spinal canal. Your spine, or backbone, protects your spinal cord and allows you to stand and bend. Spinal stenosis causes narrowing in your spine. The narrowing can occur at the center of your spine, in the canals branching off your spine and/or between the vertebrae, the bones of the spine.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M48.00 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The narrowing puts pressure on your nerves and spinal cord and can cause pain.spinal stenosis occurs mostly in people older than 50. Younger people with a spine injury or a narrow spinal canal are also at risk. Diseases such as arthritis and scoliosis can cause spinal stenosis, too.
M48.02 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of spinal stenosis, cervical region. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
