Cervical Stenosis is aggravated and made worse by these 10 everyday things. Leaving cervical stenosis to get worse is a bad idea because it progressively pinches the nerves in the neck more over time. If left untreated, cervical spinal stenosis can be debilitating and require invasive neck surgery.

Be aware of what activities you need to plan better for, get help with, or avoid all together.

Most of these activities will be fine to return to doing once you address the underlying root problem of cervical spinal stenosis and get relief from the neck pain and other symptoms it causes.

9 out of 10 cases of cervical stenosis can recover enough to avoid surgery and get back to doing everything they love to do. Even if it’s activities mentioned in this video.
