Spinal stenosis is difficult to be relieved by taking a bath, and should be treated with formal treatment, such as medication, physical therapy, surgery and other ways. Spinal stenosis is categorized into cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, etc. The causes of spinal stenosis may be congenital developmental abnormality, osteophytes, hypertrophy of ligamentum flavum, and trauma, etc. Oral medication and physical therapy can only relieve the pain and other symptoms, and surgery is the main method of radical treatment. Oral medications include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin, indomethacin and acetaminophen. Physical therapy modalities such as heat packs, spectrum irradiation, baking electricity, and ultrashort wave therapy are also available. Surgeries are chosen according to different stenosis areas, such as laminectomy, posterior laminectomy decompression, and so on. Don’t blindly listen to the rumor that taking a bath can relieve and cure spinal stenosis, you should follow the doctor’s instructions to regulate the treatment and avoid blindly using medication on your own.
