can spinal stenosis cause tingling in hands and feet?

Cervical Spinal Stenosis Cervical stenosis affects the part of the spine in your neck. Symptoms include: Neck pain. Numbness, tingling or weakness in your hand, arm, leg or foot.

Cervical spinal stenosis does not cause symptoms unless the spinal cord or nerves becomes squeezed. Symptoms usually develop gradually over a long period of time and may include: Stiffness, pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, shoulders, arms, hands, or legs.

In severe cases, bowel and bladder control may be affected. The symptoms of spinal stenosis can severely curtail normal activities, including walking and standing. When the symptoms become chronic, they may set the stage for health problems related to inactivity, such as cardiovascular disease, obesity, and depression.

Tingling or numbness may be associated with symptoms although these may be felt distant to the site of pain. Tingling can also be associated with other causes such as low levels of vitamin D (because vitamin D is required for calcium absorption which is essential for nerve impulse transportation).

Sensory changes vary, but tend to affect vibration and joint position sense in the hands more than the feet. Radiculopathy (nerve root compression) due to cervical spondylosis usually occurs at the C5 to C7 levels, although higher levels can also be affected.

In some cases, degenerative disk disease can lead to numbness and tingling in your arms and legs. It can also cause your leg muscles to become weak. This means the damaged disks may be affecting the nerves near your spine.

There are two types of spinal stenosis: the lower vertebrae, called lumbar stenosis and the upper neck area, called cervical stenosis. While lumbar stenosis typically causes the most pain, cervical stenosis is often the source of dizziness. Pinched nerves can cause headaches and a loss of balance.

Cervical stenosis affects the part of the spine in your neck. Symptoms include: Neck pain. Numbness, tingling or weakness in your hand, arm, leg or foot.

Stroke. Tingling in the feet or hands may be a sign of a stroke. Symptoms come on suddenly and may include: numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, particularly on one side.

When a nerve in the neck becomes irritated, it can cause pain and tingling in the neck or head. Herniated discs and bone spurs can result in a pinched nerve. This can lead to neck tingling, known as cervical radiculopathy.
1377082
Arthritis, falls, accidents and wear and tear on the bones and joints in the spine also play a part in stenosis. As the lumbar spinal canal shrinks, the nerves that go through it are squeezed. This squeezing may cause back pain, leg pain and leg weakness. Many adults have this kind of stenosis.

When a cervical nerve root in the neck becomes inflamed or compressed, such as from a bone spur or herniated disc, neurologic deficits of tingling, numbness, and/or weakness may be felt in the shoulder, arm, hand, and/or fingers. Cervical radiculopathy may sometimes be accompanied by shock-like pain.

Damage or interference with the conduction (transfer of information) of these nerves can cause neurological problems such as pain, weakness, abnormal sensations, numbness and muscle spasm. These symptoms may occur in the trunk, chest, ribs and arms. In general there is less movement in the thoracic spine.

In severe cases, these bone spurs may take up room needed by the spinal cord and surrounding nerves to move freely in the spinal canal. If the nerves in the spine become compressed (pinched), patients may experience weakness in the arms or legs and numbness in the legs.

Nerve issues are often a side effect of some prescription drugs. Medications for cancer (chemotherapy), HIV or AIDS, high blood pressure, tuberculosis, and certain infections can cause weakness or numbness in your hands and feet.

Cervical Spinal Stenosis Symptoms Spinal stenosis in your neck can cause cervical radiculopathy—symptoms may include pain accompanied by tingling sensations, numbness and/or weakness. These symptoms may radiate downward from your neck into one or both shoulders, arms and/or hands.
