Foraminal Stenosis is a disorder where bony spurs and/or disc material is/are causing a narrowing of available space in the foramen where nerves exit. In effect a nerve may be pinched causing neurological symptoms such as tingling, numbness and/or raditating pain in other parts of the body such as arms, hands, fingers and legs.
Our site is development and will focus on helping those suffering from foraminal stenosis to find relief and invaluable advice. Hang in there and stay tuned.
