Spine Stenosis

The Stenosis of the Spine can be caused due to ligament changes in the back. The ligaments can become stiff and thick over time. The lessening of elasticity in the ligaments may lead to the compression of the nerve roots, the narrowing of the spinal column and the shortening of the spine. The disks and ligaments experience wear and tear and the lumbar vertebra could slip over one another. The spinal nerves are compressed. This may lead to weakness, or numbness in your legs.
