10 Effective Ways To Help Manage Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Pain
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июн 2024
- Spinal stenosis in the lower back is seen as a condition that you can NEVER get better and everyone eventually gets surgery for it.
This happens because most healthcare workers are taught that it doesn’t get better in school. They’re shown to treat patients with medications, injections and surgery. Their process is to send stenosis patients for x-rays or an MRI to figure out how bad the stenosis is, then offer drugs, hopelessly attempt physical therapy and see how long the patient can hold out before they sign up for surgery.
But here in our clinic, we see lumbar spinal stenosis patients reduce symptoms, get pain-free, and even become more active than they’ve ever been in their lives!
It comes down to figuring out the right combination of treatments and being consistent with them.
Test each of these for 1 week at a time to see if it benefits you.
Then figure out which 3-4 of the treatment options from this video work best for you. Then make time to consistently do them as long as you need to get back to normal or at least better enough to be active again.
We offer an online comprehensive exercise program for back problems right here!
It’s called the 28 Day Back Health & Wellness Boost Program.
It's a 100% online and on-demand program for improving back health. It's packed with exercises, advice and coaching from Dr. David.

Thank you so much.
i can hear the experience with lumbar stenoisis and spinal issues in your voice. i am now practicing the excercises and have stopped doing the ones to avoid. I am seeing improvement already. i am subscribing to your channel and will be enrolling in the 28 Day Back program. My back issues developed over my 73 years , including 35 years of cycling , hang gliding , running and mountain biking (and NOT DOING GOOD BACK EXCERCISES , while also doing some of the bad exercises people say are good for you) . My nest body upgrade will be your Cervical neck series. Thanks !

How are you doing now?
I have very tight piriformis muscles. Does that contribute to my spinal stenosis pain?
Your videos are wonderful?
Do you have a print out of the exercises? Some of the ones you said don't do are on my initial list from my pt.
Thanks for your video. My mom is 73 and had an MRI that showed mild stenosis in T12 and L1 also a compressed fracture . She has a lot of pain and she cant walk or sit for a long time. You mentioned that usually is because back muscles being to strong but in her case its weak. She also has severed atrophy paraspinal musculature. Is there any exercise to strengthen these muscles? Thanks
Do you have recommendations for exercise bikes?
Does the inversion table work for spinal stenosis?
Hi would an inversion table help with curing stenosis?
I had a spinal injection in January 2023, the pain was sooo bad, I couldn't take it. In March my pain was coming back slowing...i am so glad i ran across your videos, i absolutely appreciate your videos. They are really helping me.

Good day Sir. In my early 40s I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in both my knees and back.What type of cardiovascular exercises can I do without equipment.

Hey Bonnie! Glad to hear it! Let us know if they help! 😊
Have these exercises help you??
How are you doing now?
Just one question: I know the swimming would help strengthening the entire body, but would it also help curing the lumbar stenosis? Thank you!
From experience: just be careful that you keep your body in a straight line, do NOT swim in grandma-style. Before my operation I even had to stop with water gymnastics, because my spine was so unstable.
@@lillic8522 Thank you for the answer! It helps to know about someone's experience. About the swimming style, I will ask my wife to supress my grandpa habits. Thank you again!
@@bogdanp.4793 you are very welcome! BTW: after 6 years, when at the end I could not walk more than 100 m without having to stop, I had 2 discs fused (L3-5). That was in late 2019. Now I can hike for several hours and do yoga and a lot of other sports. Jogging is not nice because that makes me feel the fused bones more…. And I have not needed one painkiller for my back in the last years!
Good luck, and maybe do not wait too long.
What is Gma swimming?
@@lillic8522that’s wonderful ! What did you do to get out of that?
How about the chair cycle for cardiac workout?
I have the same question
Question: When you talk about the front lumbar muscles and use the term, "abdominal muscles" is that what we lay people call "core" muscles?
Also, if one doesn't have any tennis balls at the moment, what about one of those strong massage devices (2 speed vibrating) that has a rubber ring around it, with one send protruding out? (with LED heat lamp).? Using that against, say, the sofa back cushion to move it around as you demonstrated?
Also, what about using a heating pad on those back muscles to "soften" them?
I won't go into details, but right now, I have what this vid is about as well, right now, I'm dealing with a pinched nerve and by pressing on diff. vertebrae, I know which one is causing it (the location).
So I need to do whatever to get this resolved.
What is the name of this device?
What about people with hip fusions cause I have a right hip that is fused and it has been for many years and now my right leg is numb and foot unable to stand very long
Thank you Dr D! Is the Lumbar Exerciser good if I have a compression fracture on my L4, Arthritis, and Osteoporosis? I thought it’s not good to bend forward if one has Osteoporosis.
I also have Spinal Stenosis.
Your video was very interesting to me in that you stated to avoid certain stretches that I was taught in P.T. after two hip replacements. Additionally I also have Spinal Stenosis......I am curious about how you feel regarding exercises for hip and stenosis....Although I am 81 (!), I have always worked out and am in decent shape as far as strength, balance and aerobics.....I am working out now using a LifePro Vibration plate and wondering what you
think of this kind of workout? Appreciate hearing from you..... Your videos are very informative.....

* PLEASE ANSWER” I have gluteal tendinopathy in addition to spinal stenosis. I have been told that I should lay on my sides with gluteal tendinopathy. However, when I do lay flat on my back with a pillows under my knee , it still doesn’t feel right on my back. How do I sleep?
What do you think about a chiropractor for spinal stenosis?
Hi Donna,
Chiropractic care can offer some relief for lumbar spinal stenosis, but it's crucial to find a practitioner experienced in addressing this condition. Keep in mind that while it may provide temporary relief, it's essential to focus on addressing the root cause for long-term improvement.

I have trouble understanding #7 where you state to suck in your abs and get rid of the arch. Would seem as soon as you fall asleep you are not going to be able to maintain the flattening of you arch. I also an a bit skeptical of drinking that much water at for some it will decrease your sodium levels. Lastly, there are many reasons for stenosis to the way mentioned may or may not help. Sill I picked up several helpful hints and appreciate the video.
Dr D can I ride trike bike the 3 wheeler? It’s an electric bike
Your videos are very educational. But I'm in need of serious help. I had a spinal fusion 2yrs ago, and since then I've been in pain. Everyday my right hip hurts, and my feet, the pain feels like it's in the bones, but not sure. My feet have poor circulation, and a little swelling since the surgery. I do have Degenerative Disc disease can this be the problem, because my doctor doesn't seem to know the reason. Basically, I need your help and advice.
Get blood work done and vitamins D & B12 checked.
How about mount biking?
Hi Sekona, as long as your lower abdominals and glutes are the main focus then it could be beneficial. 🧡
Yeaaa i was kinda doing all the bad exercises… 😮
What about inversion tables? I have one and use it daily.
Has it helped you?
Hi Sir does this cause tingling and numbness in the leg. I have this issue on the left leg. Thanks for all your help!❤
Hey Jennifer! Many things can cause numbness and tingling in the leg. Lumbar stenosis is definitely one of those things.

I have had cervical stenosis surgery on C4 and C5 in 2016 and recently C5 and C6 in March of this year. I also had Lumber cleaned up in 2018 on L4 and L5. My problem is the neck repair has created all this nerves pain and I am still dealing with lumber stenosis pain and I am in a wheelchair 80% of time. Is the Lumber exercises safe with the recent Cervical surgery?
How old are you?
Hi Doc, would standing up and not moving for 8 plus hours be bad for spinal stenosis? I am considering a job of holding a sign on a road and directing trafic but has very little movement....I don't think it would be good for my lower stenosis.
What do you think of those pedals you can use while sitting in your home, as a beginning exercises until you can do the bike exercises or get out more?

Sometimes it's hard to tell if the pain is in your back or hip. How can you tell without exrays?
Hey there, great question! It's hard to say without an evaluation. Generally speaking, it is very common for an issue in the low back to cause radiating pain down into the hips. We have a great playlist for low back pain that may be able to help in case you are interested in learning more. Here is a link:

We also have a great program for the health and wellness of your back in case you would be interested in something like that. Here is a link with more information:
The 28 Day Back Health & Wellness Boost Program is designed to help people have the best chance of avoiding unnecessary surgery, injections, or having to rely on pain medications.

I have chronic bouts of sciatica that only last about 10 days each time thank god.
Does all this info apply to sciatica as well? Your section on what NOT to do are all the stretches sciatica stretches recommends. I'm a bit confused. Stretches and back strengthening the same. Definitely don't help me that's for sure.....
This information can definitely apply to someone who has sciatica-like symptoms. Your sciatic nerve is composed of multiple spinal nerve roots. If the spinal nerve roots in the low back are pinched, it would feel very similar to sciatica. That is why we want to treat the low back and the hips. So, this may be able to help!
Hi David, The only way I get relief for excruciating pain is by sitting on the bed with my legs out. Sitting is not so good and doesn't have the same effect? What can you suggest please? My GP says she is more worried about how thin my bones are than she is about the pain in my hip. I fell and had a hip operation...I also sleep sitting up to get relief. Many thanks.

This all sounds good, but I can’t even walk. The pain is so bad down my leg to my foot that I can’t even walk. After getting up and doing the slightest thing, it will take me over an hour just to calm everything down. I’m supposed to go pick up x-ray paper or form to go get an x-ray and I can’t even do that.

I had the same problem, couldn’t even walk pain in legs so bad! I tried his pelvic tilt and the pain was being relieved, a few more exercises and I was doing a lot better. He is extremely smart stick with it, soon it will start to help, I can walk again
A con man. Spinal stenosis involves nerve compression not muscles.
