Spinal Stenosis Treatment in New Jersey
What Is Spinal Stenosis?
Spinal stenosis occurs when the spaces in your spine narrow and compress the spinal cord or nerves. This can lead to chronic pain, numbness, or difficulty walking. At InfiniHealth Medical Group, our specialists offer advanced, personalized care to help you find relief and return to the activities you love — without unnecessary surgery.
Common Symptoms
Common Symptoms Include:
-
Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
-
Weakness or coordination issues
-
Pain in the lower back, neck, or glutes
-
Sciatica or foot drop
-
Loss of bladder/bowel control (in severe cases)
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t ignore them—early diagnosis and treatment can prevent further nerve damage and help you get back to living pain-free.
What Causes Spinal Stenosis?
Stenosis is most commonly caused by wear-and-tear from aging, but other factors can contribute:
-
Arthritis: Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can lead to bone spurs that narrow the spinal canal.
-
Genetics: Some people are born with a narrower canal or spinal abnormalities.
-
Disc Bulges or Herniations: These can press against nerves.
-
Injuries or Cysts: Past trauma or synovial cysts may also restrict space around the spinal cord.
Diagnosis & Evaluation
At InfiniHealth Medical Group, we use advanced diagnostic tools—such as X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, and physical exams—to pinpoint the source of nerve compression. Our team builds a personalized care plan based on your symptoms, imaging, and medical history.
Non-Surgical Treatments
Not all cases require surgery. We often begin with effective non-operative treatments to reduce pain and improve function, such as:
-
Medication Management: Anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, or short-term pain meds.
-
Physical Therapy: Focused exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and posture.
-
Heat & Cold Therapy: Helps reduce inflammation and manage flare-ups.
-
Chiropractic Care: Spinal adjustments to ease pressure and improve mobility.
-
Epidural Steroid Injections: Targeted relief to calm inflammation and confirm the pain source.
Minimally Invasive Procedures
When conservative treatments aren’t enough, InfiniHealth offers cutting-edge, low-impact procedures with faster recovery times:
-
Endoscopic Laminotomy: A small incision and camera allow precise removal of bone spurs or thickened ligaments.
-
Vertiflex Superion Implant: Creates more space in the spine to reduce pressure on nerves.
-
MILD® Procedure: Removes overgrown ligaments in the lower back to restore function and mobility.
Surgical Treatment & Recovery
For more severe cases, we offer minimally invasive spine surgeries with high success rates and shorter downtime:
-
MIS Lumbar Discectomy or Laminectomy: Decompresses spinal nerves through small incisions.
-
MIS TLIF Fusion: Relieves nerve pressure and stabilizes your spine.
-
ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion): Often used for neck stenosis with excellent outcomes.
Most patients begin feeling relief within days. Your recovery plan will be fully personalized, with clear guidance on when to return to work, activity, and exercise.
