There are different types of Spinal Stenosis. Lumbar Spinal Stenosis affects the spinal nerves in the lower back and is common. Cervical Stenosis affects the nerves in the neck and often causes myelopathy, or compression of the cervical spinal cord. Cervical Stenosis is more severe and common in elderly patients.
Spinal Stenosis can be caused by natural wear and tear of the ligaments due to aging. Other causes of Spinal Stenosis are Arthritis, a back injury or traumatic accident.

I have been going to theThe Spine & Rehab Group Center now for 3 years. I have a Spondylolysis and have had multiple treatments by Dr. Hosny with different spinal injections and various treatments. My biggest success for the reduction of pain is the Radio Frequency Ablation. The effects was a major reduction of pain lasting for well over a year, and I am presently seeking to having the procedure done again. Until a major break throught is a total success on back surgery, the RFA shots will be my success story for back pain reduction. Thank you Dr. Hosny!
