Endoscopic decompression: the least invasive option, requiring an incision of up to 7mm. The neurosurgeon inserts a thin endoscope into the incision, then special instruments are inserted into the endoscope and guided to the site of the stenosis under constant X-ray control. During the endoscopy, the patient's muscles are not severed, so the procedure is virtually painless. The patient can go home the same day. During the endoscopy, the neurosurgeon performs decompression of the nerve.

Paragraphs again
To look classy, appear taller, create a professional look, or complete an ensemble, many women wear heels.
However, wearing high heels puts the foot in an uncomfortable position and can lead to pain and other problems. How can you take care of your feet and at the same time do justice to fashion?
There is a lot of talk about the health risks of high heels: congestion in the forefoot area, toe deformities, including the dreaded hallux valgus with underdeveloped big toes and unsightly bumps on them, swelling and pain in the feet and lower legs, varicose veins - all sad consequences of the long ' sitting up'. Here's how to take care of your feet after wearing heels for hours, so you can feel good again.
Take off your heels immediately if you notice the following symptoms:
- Your feet hurt and swell more than usual: You may have been walking in heels for too long. Even if your heels are a bit too small or too tight, your feet will get a 'double punch'. Podiatrists recommend changing to more comfortable footwear after two hours in heels;
- Corns and calluses in the forefoot: Pay special attention to the first and fifth toes (these are the anchor points of the foot) and the sole of the foot in the forefoot, just behind the toes (the higher the heel, the more pressure);
- Lower back pain and headaches (the former are a result of shifting the center of gravity and increased flexion of the lower back, the latter a result of poor circulation due to the venous pumps in the foot and lower leg not being able to work fully).
If you wear high-heeled shoes for a long period of time, the 'wrong' load changes the anatomy of the foot significantly: the arch sags, the cushioning function of the foot is impaired and the heel tendon gradually atrophies as it remains unused. This in turn inevitably leads to the rapid development of irreversible diseases of the ankle, knee, hip and intervertebral joints, which quickly lose their 'ability to work' and wear out.
How does spinal canal stenosis develop?
Spinal canal stenosis can be a natural consequence of aging as years of wear and tear cause the spinal canal to shrink. In other cases, spinal stenosis can be caused by a specific cause such as an injury, accident, or a related spinal condition such as a herniated disc. Spinal canal stenosis in patients under the age of 50 is usually due to a genetic predisposition. The disease is considered congenital.
Bone spurs (osteophytes). Bone spurs can form between the vertebrae in any patient as they age, usually after the age of 40.
Osteoarthritis is a common condition in patients over the age of 50. This disease can cause disc degeneration, bone spurs, and ligament hypertrophy that can lead to spinal stenosis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a less common cause of spinal stenosis, although the inflammation can put extra pressure on the spinal cord.
Degenerative spondylolisthesis and degenerative scoliosis (curvature of the spine): Vertebral bulging is often caused by degeneration of the spine. This condition often occurs with lumbar spinal canal stenosis.
A herniated disc is caused by degeneration of the intervertebral discs. Specific causes and risk factors also include age, obesity, and trauma. A herniated disc can put pressure on the spinal cord or nerves.
A spinal injury can cause vertebrae to fracture or dislocate, which in turn can result in damage to the spinal canal. Injuries can be caused by sports, car accidents or falls.
Tumors are abnormal soft tissue growths that can occur in the spinal canal. Tumors put pressure on the spinal cord and vertebrae.
Symptoms of spinal canal stenosis
Spinal stenosis symptoms usually develop gradually and worsen over time. Symptoms can vary depending on the location of the injury and include:
- Pain, cramps, or stiffness in the legs and lower back, especially after walking for a long time. The pain usually subsides when you sit or lean forward.
- in severe cases, loss of bladder and bowel control or sexual dysfunction may occur
- Numbness, weakness, tingling or pain in your arm, neck or leg
- paralysis.
- step on the heel.
- back foot.
- Does it make sense to walk in heels?.
- Torn ligaments in leg.
- Damaged ligaments in the elbow joint.
