What Is Spinal Stenosis? Your spine consists of 26 bones stacked up on top of each other making your vertebrae. Your spinal column helps to support your spinal cord, which allows you to stand, walk, twist, and move. Each bone in your vertebrae has additional attachments to add more stability and protection of the spinal cord. In between these bones are cushioned discs, which prevent the bones from rubbing up against each other. Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the open spaces in your spine, leading to pressure on your spinal cord and the nerves that travel through it. Your spine is divided into three main parts: cervical, thoracic, and lumbar. This condition usually occurs in the lower back (lumbar) and neck of the spine (cervical).
