Spinal stenosis is considered to be a common spinal issue in both men and women. As we grow old, our spinal canal starts to narrow down along the lower back. As a result, it creates pressure on the nerves that pass through the spine. Spinal stenosis is a degenerative process that allows the ligaments along the spine to thicken and vertebrae and joints to enlarge. It creates certain painful conditions. You can contact a back specialist in OKC or a back pain doctor to find a solution for your spinal stenosis.
Spinal stenosis is harder to find among younger people unless it’s inherited. Mostly, people over the age of 50 often get spinal stenosis. Certain spinal injuries or arthritis can cause spinal stenosis. You can get in touch with a professional back pain specialist if you are suffering from spinal stenosis.
Symptoms
Many people develop spinal stenosis without any symptoms. When it does, it’s extremely painful and gets even worse over the course of time. Symptoms often depend on the affected location and nerves. Some of the common symptoms are –
Numbness and tingling sensation in the affected area.
Feeling of weakness in a hand in the case of cervical stenosis and in a leg for lumbar stenosis.
Unable to walk properly
Neck pain and back pain
Cramping or pain while walking for a longer period of time.
Causes
Overgrowth of the bone, in many cases, is a serious cause of spinal stenosis.
Herniated discs can also be a possible cause.
When the ligaments start to thicken, it narrows the spinal canal.
Certain injuries can damage your spinal canal. If you sustain an injury to your spine, you may develop spinal stenosis. You need to contact a back specialist in OKC in this regard.
Treatments
There are different treatment options available for Spinal stenosis. Some of the common options are physical therapy, nerve root block and cortisone injections. Once you see a back pain doctor in OKC, he will take early steps in order to relieve your pain. When these treatment options fail to make an impact, your doctor may recommend surgery.

I have a response to the people saying they have been made to wait for an exorbitant amount of time for the doctor to make it in to work or that he was disrespectful. I have been a patient of this fantastic human for ten to fifteen years (if not lomger), and I have never ever had an experience such as those. Reviews that are in such sharp contrast to the vast majority strike me as inauthentic. I don't know that as fact but thats the vibe i get. I understand that not everyone has the same experience at he same doctors office but I also know that there is just no pleasing some people and many times, they are the ones who complain the loudest and the most.If you are looking for a doctor that will help you explore all options in your care and who isn't afraid to try something that is not the same old "shove a pill at the problem, and we'll see what happens," Dr. Darryl Robinson at OSSO is the perfect person to come to or bring your loved one who is tired of living in pain. He offers so many options, and one may just work for you.When I am looking at reviews, I try to consider all things being said and I have even chosen a doc or two who didn't have the most perfect reviews but looked at all the people singing their praises along with the negative comments and gave them a chance based on what my heart was telling me, I haven't been disappointed yet so it seems that that strategy is working for me.Dr. Robinson has the BEST bedside manner, is very mild mannered, speaks softly, and is just an all-around kind and caring individual . I just hope he doesn't retire before I depart this planet because I feel so spoiled by the besr!!! Thank you to Doctor Robinson, April & the rest of the staff for everything you do for us!!!!Please keep being the best at what you do!!Lori Cochran

I really cannot say enough good things about Dr. Robinson. My husband is a disabled vet who has struggled to get a doctor to listen to him about his pain and the impact on his quality of life. Dr. Robinson has been so understanding and provided real treatment and actual solutions. We will be forever grateful to Dr. Robinson and his staff.

I enjoyed seeing Dr. Robinson. I thought the front office staff was very nice, all the nurses were very pleasant as well. The wait time was long but that’s the only negative I have. Overall it was a good experience

I've been going to Dr. Robinson for over 10 years to manage severe lower back pain, sciatic pain, and arthritis in my hips. I usually see his PA for my appointments. During this time I have received multiple epidural injections along with other treatments and daily meditation. Some of the reasons i keep seeing Dr. Robinson and his staff is that, he respects my decision of not wanting surgery, the treatments he performs, he does so with a mild sedative to ensure that you are as comfortable as possible. Ive heard so many horror stories about other pain management Doctors not using pain relief during procedures. I can't imagine having to suffer through a procedure that is supposed to bring relief. It doesn't make sense to me.Lately I've have been fortunate enough to be seeing his PA Dustin Brooks. I can't say enough good things about this guy. He really cares about the pain your in and recommends the best treatments to bring relief. Out of the last 3 PA's Dr. Johnson has had, I have to say that Dustin is the best! Presently he suggested a procedure that hasn't been done before. Now all of the treatments have brought some form of relief. Having said that , the last one, was a life changer. If you live in constant pain, then you know what I'm talking about. For the last few years I've been worried about possibly having to start using a wheelchair. But after the last treatment, I no longer worry about it. I can move and walk better than ever! He brought a level of pain relief I've never experienced before. He was able to pin point where the pain was originating from, and recommend the appropriate treatment. For the last two months I have been able to manage the pain with just the daily medication. It feels like a miracle. I haven't felt this good in the last 10 years! I feel like I owe him a debt of gratitude. I've even given up my cane!My name is Jerry McKnight. If anyone wants to talk to me about a referral, or what to expect, please reach out. I know how hard it is to live in severe daily pain. It's not hopeless. There is help out there. As far as I'm concerned, this is the place to start. In all honesty, I wouldn't see anyone else. Dr Robinson and his staff are the best!May you find relief and peace.

From the moment I walked into the office the staff at the front desk were so helpful and all smiles, the nurse that took me back was a doll, super nice and again helpful.
