What Meds Are Best For Pain For Severe Spinal Stenosis?
Spinal stenosis is characterized by narrowing of the spinal canal. This narrowing can put pressure on the nerves. Spinal stenosis can cause numbness and pain in the neck, arms, back and legs depending upon the location of spinal stenosis. Pain due to spinal stenosis can be treated with the use of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like indomethacin and ibuprofen. Among other medicines, acetaminophen is also used to reduce pain but this drug has no role in reducing inflammation. Your doctor can prescribe best medicine for you depending upon severity of the problem.
