Are you suffering from back & leg pain that is worse with walking or standing? Pain is relieved with sitting? And seems to come on gradually as you've got older?
Lumbar stenosis is caused by the narrowing of the central canal/foramen of the vertebrae body in the low back, causing compression/entrapment of the neural and vascular elements. Causing low back pain, leg pain/symptoms and more rare serious issues.

Very straight to the point advice with exercise demo, just what I have been looking for. Thanks so much 👍
That was exactly our intention. You are most welcome, glad you found it helpful!
Was diagnosed with this about 5 years past. The doctor referred me to physical therapy and they never preformed any of these exercises. So dropped out as it was not helping. Now I understand why. Been going to the gym on a seated bicycle. Even walking I would become very bent over. And shopping used the cart to support me. Use a walking staff. Have a compressed cartilage between the 4th and 5th vertebrae from a fall when 15 years old so this may a result of that also. 73 years now. Thanks for this may help.
Sounds like you are doing a great job manage this. Hope the video helps!

I needed this. I've been dx with grade 1 Spondylothesis but have the very same symptoms you've mentioned. I'm trying to avoid surgery and will put in the work with these recommended excercise. I'm currently getting decompression therapy as well. I'm just trying to do what it takes to get back to my life. Thanks so much.
We have had extremely good success with people implementing this video to avoid surgery

My numbness worst when I walk too much.. other wise in sajda I relief.. is it stenosis
Thank you very much Dr Zach . I find this video very useful. I have suffered this condition for a long time as I didn't know about it. I have felt a difference in my affected leg after doing the exercises from this & 2 other videos.
Wonderful! Sorry to hear you have suffered from this for a long time, but so glad to hear the video has helped!
Pain is behind left calf and knee, it gets stiff after sitting and can't stand on left leg.
@@jeanricketts6880 Sorry to hear you are dealing with this. Does the stiffness get better or worse as you move around?
Very good video! Thank you. You said something that no therapist told me point blank but what I suspected for some time: there is no cure for it, just mitigation for symptoms
Thank you. Yes, unfortunately there isn't. But with exercise, stretching and activity modification most people have good long term outcomes! Please let us know if you have any questions

Is it still possible to lift weights at the gym with spinal stenosis? (Compound lifts)
Superb - no choice but to immediately sub.
Thank you, really appreciate you subscribing!
I’m 62 and having a terrible time trying to walk and just function. MRI shows lumbar discs bulging, surgeon says nothing surgical. But no diagnosis provided. My Dr. hasn’t been able to give me a diagnosis either. So I’m researching online, this video perfectly describes my symptoms. Very frustrating, all the Doctors want to do is prescribe drugs, fix the symptoms not the problem.
Yes, unfortunately often treating the symptoms is the main goal. Hope this video helps clarify things for you. Please let us know if you have any specific questions.
Wow this is awesome for me I must show my family this video so they understand when telling them that my back hurts 😢 😞
Glad it will be helpful explain the issue ot your family. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the information. I have been experiencing this lower back pain since 2017 off and on but mine is severe when I sit to get up is very painful. I most time cannot stand up right or straight bu t preferably ok when I lay down
You are most welcome! One thing that can help when having difficulty standing up, is to use you hands and press into your thighs to help you stand. That way you use more of your legs/hips, rather than your back.
Thank you..🙏🏻 been suffering since last June, got injection last week, felt getting worse.. found this video this morning hopefully will help.
You're welcome! This video will give you a lot of great things to implement. Let us know if you have any specific questions.
Injection doesn’t cure! It’s just an alternative treatment.
Thank you
You're welcome
Tanks. Exellent
Glad to hear!
Thanks
Wow, very generous!
Dr Zach i love your videos is this also good exercise for spinal cord injury T10 in complete and in 49yrs old?
Thank you for the kind words! It depends on the nature and severity of the injury. Has the cord been assess with MRI and/or a spine specialist stated that it is safe to perform exercises?
Exlent viedio
Thank you!
Thank you. I have that Lumbar pain. When I walk, I get it baby. Lean forward then feel better for a while. Then it comes back. I was told it was the Sciatic. It's on my left. All the way down my left leg. Thank you for the information
You are so welcome! Glad you found it helpful.
Great video. Having lumbar stenosis but no pain after your stretches can I proceed with deadlifts after several days?
Thank you! Great question, unfortunately we can't give you specific medical advice. But in general yes, just start slow and find the right entry point. Nothing beats smart programming!
I have had the symptoms you describe for over 9 years now with excruciating pain which has got steadily worse over those 9 years. Your video was most Helpful thank you. Plan to do the stretching exercises every day for a while to see if there is any difference. Already doing them on waking this week and able to walk further with my dog with reduced pain. So fingers crossed. GP practice not interested "this is back pain" 'nothing we can do for you'" "you'll just have to take pain killers".. They continue to resist sending me to other practitioners other than physio thereapist. Won't arrange an MRI to determine what is going on. Told at my last appointment last week that I have arthiritis in L3,4 & 5 and that this was diagnosed in 2017. This was the first that I have heard of this never mentioned before. I have had 3 herniated discs in the same area but no mention of arthiritis in my lumber region. thanks again.
Sorry to hear about your experience, It is extremely frustrating when we get dismissed by the people that are suppose to help us. The stretches should help! Finding ways to self-manage and understanding our back pain is the most optimal approach.
I know the feeling!
Dr Zach can I still try these exercises as I also have spondylolisthesis and pars defect bilateral.
You should be able to, as long as the spondy is stable. When was your last image and did the practitioner tell you?
THANK U
Of course! Thanks for watching
I have done my MRI. Aside from L4 L5 L5 S1 Stage 2 spondylolisthesis, the result showed I have L3 L4 Stage 1 spondylolisthesis Your exercises are great, I will incorporate them in my routine Thank you.
Great, glad you found them helpful!
Here is our video on spondylolisthesis as well:

Please let us know if you have any questions.
Great video thanks! I have just been diagnosed with bilateral neural foraminal stenosis L5 S1 with compression on the left exiting nerve. I have no pain/disc bulges but i do have pins ans needles in the left leg. Can this cause cauda equina?
Thank you! Cauda equina is usually caused by a severe and acute disc herniation. Also, thank you for subscribing.
@PerformanceSportSpine Thank you for replying and no problem! Great content!
Very much apprecaited this video 3 months ago I was diagnosed with L4 L5 L5 S1 spondilolisthesis stage 2. Ithis condition same with lumbar stenosis because the symptoms are almost the same. Havent done MRI procedure yet as my ortho doctor recommended.
The spondilolisthesis can cause the stenosis of the spinal canal and subsequent nerve irritation.
This video will help explain the spondy better.
ua-cam.com/video/GLENCnFLZns/v-deo.html
Let us know if you have any questions
Is a a regular stationary bike ok to use or only the type in the video with the legs extended?
Yep, that will work great too.
I am 36 and have all these symptoms (radiation goes down my left leg to calf with back extension) after doing a deadlift exactly one week ago and hearing 3 little popping sounds around my SI joint area. The doctor gave me steroids,flexiril, and a back brace but the pain is still about the same. Back brace in place and I still have the pain too. Is traumatic stenosis the same or do I possibly have something else to worry about? They didn't do imagining at the ED as it seemed they were just looking for bulge/herniated disc. Thanks for all the info regardless.
Sorry to hear this happened. As for it is traumatic stenosis or something else, I can't say unfortunately with an examination. Don't be too frustrated if there is still pain after 1 week, these usually take 4-8 weeks. And medication just doesn't help much when the pain is being caused by the nerves. Lastly, if it is stenosis and the back brace puts your low back (lumbar spine) into extension, it is likely to make this worse. Please let me know if you have any additional questions
It’s very interesting ,
How to now nature exacte of myn pain ?what can send you ?
I’m runner
I have back pain more than 0ne year
sorry, not exactly sure what you are asking?
I am also taking 600 Mg of Gabapentin daily. I'm going to try some of your exercises.
Best of luck! They should help you
I have been suffering for months now, I am on short term disability for months now, I try everything under the sun and it DOES NOT WOTK, my doctor does not NOT recommend surgery because I have multiple finding in my spine, I am now waiting for steriod injection, I can't wait for this, it's my last hope, I have to go back to work and I don't know how I'm going to manage. It's the worse pain I have every endure in my life, I feel like I can't go on.
This disease can be extremely debilitating. Hopefully the injection will help.
I’m going to try grounding. Your buy grounding sheets that you plug into a grounding outlet. OR put foil tape on your bed, connect to a grounding outlet. I don’t remember the video but I’ll look for it.
2 days ago I received my 1st back injection. I had an MRI which showed 2 bulged discs and sever Ortho stenosis. Been dealing with it for years and it progressively got more frequent and more painful on the nerve. My back feels so much better, the very next day unloaded a truck bed full of crushed granite lol, prolly shouldn't have but was so eager to get something's done without pain.. Hope you get it soon.
Have you tried Inversion? It might help. You can buy a basic inversion table for under $100. Basically you are using gravity to relieve the pressure in your lower back. You need to totally relax, slowly exhale. You might hear a pop or a bang.This is a good thing. Hopefully you will get relief. I tend to have a hang at the end of the day when the spine is most compressed.
@@EnglishCad, You didn’t direct that towards me, but I would never do inversion. It seems one has to have a really good basic muscular structure to support the back. I know I don’t have that. I think of one of the Superman actors who hung upside down for a kissing scene just a little bit too long and has been out of commission since. I might just destroy your back.
What about glute exercises. Like a reverse leg lift. Is that ok with L2-S1 bulges, or would that probably pierce the cauda equina?
Those won't hurt the cauda equina. They can be a get exercise. With stenosis, lumbar extension normally isn't well tolerate so just make sure it is primarily the hips that are doing the movement
I am suffering from this condition for a long time and doctor suggested me surgery
Sorry to hear that, we highly recommend implementing what we talk about in this video. Have ton of people avoid surgery that way
I have an L5-S1 disc bulge with mild forominal stenosis.
Does this activity helps please? I was doing a cobra pose and other activities which I feel abrogated to yours.
Thank you
neither one of that should or will stop you from being active. However initially, you make have to be selective with how much and how fast you start things
@@PerformanceSportSpine Thank you for responding. I have been wondering why my condition hasn't improved in almost three years. I've been careful about my posture, avoiding bending over, and doing exercises to strengthen my abs and back muscles. However, I just recently learned about stenosis & its typical excercise, The term was mentioned in my test results and I found the exercises you recommended for it were not recommended for bulging disc issues. As you have said, I don't need to desregard the problems associated with Stenosis, Hence, I think I need to try a different approach. Balancing!Just so you know, I don't have severe pain now, not even when I was sick, and I can even do challenging gymnastics despite being 41 years old.
What should you do if you're asymptomatic and want to keep it that way? I walk without issue for an hour a day but could walk further if I wanted to.
Be as healthy as you can. Make sure to do some sort of resistance training 2-3x/week and get 150 minutes of moderate exercise/week.
Hi can I do these if I have stenosis and bulging disc’s?
Yes you can.
Saunders home lumbar traction is also useful.
Good to know
Would this cause pain in calves when performing exercises needing more blood flow, like running or hiking up a steep hill.
Potentially, hard to say for certain. Often walking uphill is better for this condition as it puts your spine in a more preferred position. As for running, it really is case by case.

So wat can be done about the pain i was told to operate to clean up the bones since I have bone spurs
We take about the mechanism of injury in the video @ 12:15. Again the nerves can heal/adapt without the bones being removed for a lot of cases
Kudos to you, bro. I'm 25 years old. I have spent a lot on this condition, but unfortunately, I'm still here with my pain for 3 years. My pain gets worse while sitting. I didn't see your view on sitting posture. Please point it out if there's any😊
And please answer, can one live a normal sex life with this condition?
Sorry to hear that. Typically this condition is improved with sitting. Some things can help, 1) is remove a lumbar support if you are using it. 2) Having your knees above your hips so help 3) having your feet wider apart often helps. And thank you!
Unfortunately we can't answer this as this condition has varying degrees of severity
Thanks alot

Does this imply for this MRI finding
Spondylosis most marked at L4/5 right foraminal annular tear, disc bulge indenting thecal sac and facet arthropathy causing bilateral moderate exit foraminal stenosis
What to avoid from ur exercise or if u have any video addressing disc bulge
Those are common findings with people with stenosis and general safe to start stretches/exercises. However we can't say specifically for you without a personal assessment. We hope to get a video on disc bulges up in the next few weeks
@@PerformanceSportSpine that will be very good . I will be following your exercise and wait for any more inputs in the coming video .. thanks
Is the pain always happen behind the leg and does it happen in both leg or can be caused anywhere.
Most often it affects both legs, but sometimes just one. And it can cause pain in different places, it depends on which nerve root is getting compressed and/or irritated. Here is a link of the different areas. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Hi Doctor, I have spinal stenosis in my L5S1. Did MRI and doctors are suggesting doing operation to release the pressure off the nerve. I have cramping, numbness and pinching while walking and sometimes in sleep and its get better when I sit. I don't want to do surgery. Anyway, I could treat it without surgery?
Hello! Fortunately for this condition, there is an extremely high success rate for people that implement the posture modifications, stretches and exercises and end up not needing surgery. Have you start the stretches we recommend?
@@PerformanceSportSpine Thanks very much, yes, Its been a day I have started the stretches in the video. Thanks again for your valuable information. It gives me peace of mind.
@@SaifullahSikandary-pw8bo You are most welcome! Our hope was help give people peace or mind and strategies to help them self-manage this condition. Please let me know if you come along any specific questions
@@SaifullahSikandary-pw8bohow r u now??
I'm 38 only still i have this.
I need some inputs from you sir.
I have disc bulge 8 years back.
After doing some yoga for 1 month pain went off.
Now recently i played cricket and pain numbness started at the right leg.
I had my MRI , it shows that L4 L5 S1 disc bulge and nerve compression.
My spinal diameter at affected is 5mm which should be 12mm.
So doctor suggested it is chronic pain not newly disc bulge(not acute).
So he suggested to do flexion exercises.
Can you please suggest something on the above sir.
If you symptoms are on the right, but the disc issue is on the left, it is unlikely that, that is causing your symptoms. Fortunately disc heal over time. As for what exercises you should do, I can't specifically recommend any as I don't know you condition. However, often common sense will work, start slow, if the exercises feels good, gradually progress. If it increases your pain, stop. Also be patient this will most likely be a months thing, not weeks.
@@PerformanceSportSpine yes Thanks alot sir
Been suffering for years
Hope this video helps.

Yes thank you.
Sir l4&s1 disc problem..vedio link sent bro

I feel tightness in my low back when i walk and my legs acne me, i can't walk long distance without stopping to sit to continue my journey and my back has bent.I'm of going for surgery. Do you think these exercises can be of help ?
Yes, these stretches and exercises will definitely help!
Will this happen (L stenosis), if the L herniated disc is compressing the thecal sac??
Stenosis is narrowing of the canal (either central or lateral foreman). So yes, if the disc is pressuring the thecal sac causing a narrowing that would be stenosis
Wow what a helpful video my doc said i had sciatica another doctor said it is spinal arthritis and the physio i have at the moment said it is piriformis syndrome that i have so i am confused now but after seeing the symtoms you posted o think it is spinal stenosis as i cannot walk far without sitting down and have to lean on my shoppin trolley to buy groceries i am 74 so looks like i am in trouble with stenosis after all😢
Yes, unfortunately this can get misdiagnosed a lot. Fortunately for a lot of people, following what we talking about in the video can significantly decrease their pain and improve their quality of life!
@@PerformanceSportSpine thank you for your polite answer.
Dr mine is the opposite feeling . my work is long sitting and get trouble when stand to straight position after 5 min. Does it permissible for my case ? Many thanks .
Usually you just need to strengthen and increase the endurance of the back & muscles. Planks and crunches work great!
thanks for advice . this days I am working early wake and before bed . happy at your all vids. follow up ur updates.Good day !
Hello Dr Zach,i have this condition since 7 months ago and i have been in theraphy session to decompress the spine but seems that it's not getting better,my doctor said that there is no cure for this,however he said that if it gets worse,i have to undergo an injection to decompress it?i hope it won't need a surgery,thank you,this is very helpful...
Hi! yes, unfortunately there is no cure for this. That being said, people often can see significant improvement when implementing the recommendations of this video. Glad it is helpful, thanks for watching and let us know if you have any specific questions.
Im only 43 and had back pain for few years but kept working until one day boom couldnt move down one side after few months had disc removed found another bulging, been over a year now had to finish the career i had for 25 years ,tried injection in spine no joy now waiting for radiology or something like that to see if that works feels like lifes over stuck in after being so physical .
If this is the condition that is causing your pain and symptoms, we highly recommend implementing the treatments and strategies we cover. A lot of people have seen amazing improvement in their condition from them
Belt buckle to navel was an excellent advice for teaching posterior pelvic tilt❤
You are most welcome! It is a great cue
I am going through the samething both legs butt calfs and feet and my hands
If you haven't we would recommend getting it checked out by a trained healthcare provider
Please is the straightening of the spine same as narrowing of the spine?
Typically, yes it is.
Okay so I was diagnosed with lumbar spine straightening with no degenerative disease. I have more of tingling on my feets with mild ache on my lumbar spine that resolves that is not constant. But mainly leg heaviness sometimes and when I sit for a long time I feel the pain in my lumbar spine.. can that also be because of the narrowing. According to the doctor
@@serkigiwa7706 With this issue, sitting should decrease leg symptoms, and standing/walking should make it worse. The back pain could be caused by a variety of reasons, one being the stenosis. Have you had any imaging done?
I have done an inage and it is showing lumbar spine straightening
@@PerformanceSportSpine ⁰
my doctor said to keep moving and i have had mris like 3 other times and they all say it is herniated disc and lumbar soinal stenosis. one spine doc said he could go inside and clean up the bone spurs but it will come back in time.
Moving, proper stretches and exercises can heal the nerve, without any changes to the bone.
Hey a doctor how can I talk too you
Thanks, but not sure if I have this but my biggest problem is I can’t raise my right leg, my back just won’t let. I can’t get socks on anymore, have to use all kinds of device, I am almost half way lay down to get a sock on, my other leg no problem.
Yep! Sorry to hear that, if you are also having difficulty sitting cross legged on the floor and/or getting into your car. There is a good chance it is also your right hip. This video will help if so.
