However, sometimes back pain is caused by a more serious underlying condition, which will not resolve on its own.

A bulging disc, which occurs when one of the spine's intervertebral discs becomes misshapen, is one of the most common back conditions. As people age, the spinal discs lose fluid and become less resilient, which can lead to bulging discs; in addition, athletes, pregnant women, and obese people are particularly prone to bulging discs. However, a disc bulge can happen to anyone. In some cases, a bulging disc causes no symptoms - but f it presses against the spinal cord or the nerve roots, then it may cause pain, muscle weakness, or numbness.

Conditions such as herniated discs, bone spurs, and arthritis can all cause spinal stenosis, a term which refers to a narrowing of the spinal canal. When the spinal canal is narrowed, tissue may start to press up against the spinal cord or the nerve roots. The symptoms of this condition vary based on its severity and on where the damage is located; spinal stenosis in the neck is normally more serious than in the lower back.

Although some cases respond well to conservative treatments and resolve relatively quickly, other people respond poorly to conservative treatment and require surgery. Your spinal stenosis surgery cost need not be overwhelming.
