Carrying heavy objects improperly with the back instead of the knees</p><p>b. Trauma or injury to the spine or pelvic bone</p><p>c. Staying in crouched or seated positions for too long</p><p>What are the symptoms of Spinal Stenosis?</p><p>Symptoms:</p><ol><li><p>The onset is usually gradual with bouts of back pain and stiffness over weeks or months.</p></li><li><p>Early morning stiffness and pain occurs, and then wears off during the day.</p></li><li><p>It gradually affects the lower limbs with pain and stiffness.</p></li><li><p>Typically there is low back pain radiating to the buttocks and leg which is aggravated by activity especially walking</p></li></ol><p>Signs:</p><p>1 .Physical signs are not present in early cases</p><ol start2><li><p>There may be a Simian stance (like a monkey) with flexion at the hips and knees</p></li><li><p>Spinal movements are restricted</p></li><li><p>Motor, sensory and reflex abnormalities present in one or both lower limbs</p></li><li><p>Sphincter impairments may be present rarely</p></li></ol><p>PINCHED NERVE</p><p>A pinched nerve occurs when there is too much pressure applied to a nerve by other surrounding tissues such as bones, muscles or tendons.</p><p>This pressure affects the nerves function causing pain, tingling, numbness or weakness.</p><p>A pinched nerve can occur anywhere in the body.</p><p>As an example, a herniated disk in the lumbar spine may press on a nerve root causing severe pain that radiates down the back of the leg (sciatica).</p><p>Similarly a pinched nerve in the wrist can lead to pain and numbness in the hand and fingers (carpal tunnel syndrome).</p><p>Radiculopathy refers to a set of conditions in which one or more nerves is affected and does not work properly (a neuropathy).</p><p>This can result in nerve pain, weakness, numbness or difficulty controlling specific muscles.</p><p>In a radiculopathy the problem occurs at or near the root of the nerve, along the spine.</p><p>However the pain or other symptoms often radiate to the part of the body served by that nerve.</p><p>For example, a nerve root impingement in the neck can produce pain and weakness in the forearm.</p><p>Impingement in the lower back or lumbar-sacral spine can manifest with symptoms in the foot.</p><p>The radicular pain that results from a radiculopathy should not be confused with referred pain, which is different both in mechanism and clinical features.</p><p>Polyradiculopathy refers to the condition where more than one spinal nerve root is affected.</p><p>What are the causes of Pinched Nerve?</p><p>Compression on the nerve is the main cause of Pinched Nerve.</p><ol><li><p>Bone or cartilage such as a herniated lumbar spinal disk that compresses a nerve root causing sciatica.</p></li><li><p>Muscle or tendons which are swollen may be the cause of pressure of the median nerve of carpal tunnel syndrome within the tunnel,</p></li><li><p>Enlarged bone that narrows the carpal tunnel,</p></li><li><p>A thickened and degenerated ligament in the carpal tunnel.</p></li></ol><p>The injury may result from compression, constriction, or stretching.</p><p>Any compression of the nerve causes inflammation of the nerve and disrupts the nerves function.</p>...9781310592072_Kenneth Keelibro_electonico_38162e83-a19a-32ef-969d-03db561a11df_9781310592072;9781310592072_9781310592072Kenneth KeeInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/smashwords-epub-67f077df-ba98-4c3b-9b89-8e26f357eae8.epub2014-12-17T00:00:00+00:00Kenneth Kee
