What are the symptoms of congenital spinal stenosis

summary

I have always suffered from congenital spinal stenosis. I use drugs to control my condition every day. Now my condition is quite stable. Maybe many people don't know about this disease. Let me introduce the symptoms of congenital spinal stenosis.

What are the symptoms of congenital spinal stenosis

First: when sleeping in supine position at night, lumbar lordosis gradually increases, which is also easy to induce symptoms. However, the nature and degree of this nocturnal pain are significantly different from lumbar tuberculosis and tumors. The reason why the symptoms can be relieved in flexion position is that the ligamentum flavum is tensed and thinned, the volume of spinal canal is relatively increased, and the nerve ischemia is gradually improved.

Second, most patients have a history of lumbocrural pain, which is characterized by chronic soreness and pain in the back, buttocks, thighs and legs; it is relieved or disappeared after rest or bending, and aggravated when standing, lumbar extension or walking. It is often accompanied by extensive lower limb pain, which often involves the sacrum and buttocks.

Third: after walking for a certain distance, the patient has symptoms of lower limb heaviness, fatigue, distension, numbness, pain or aggravation. After sitting or squatting for rest and lumbar flexion for a few minutes, the symptoms can be completely relieved or alleviated, and they can stand and walk again. After walking for a certain distance, the symptoms recur, the walking distance becomes shorter and shorter, and the rest period becomes longer and longer . The length of walking distance was related to the duration of illness and the severity of spinal stenosis.
