Cervical Spinal Stenosis

Cervical Spinal Stenosis

Cervical spinal stenosis (in the neck) is one of the most common forms of spinal stenosis and occurs when the spaces in the spine narrow and create pressure on the spinal cord.

Aging and age-related changes in the spine, injury, other diseases, or inherited conditions can cause narrowing of the spaces. The condition can be dangerous as the spinal cord is compressed and may compromise coordination in the extremities.

For most people, symptoms develop and progress slowly over time. Cervical spinal stenosis can lead to serious issues, such as major body weakness and paralysis.

While some people may not experience any symptoms, the most common symptoms include:

  • Tingling or weakness in the extremities
  • Numbness
  • Problems with walking and balance
  • Incontinence

If you’re experiencing these symptoms or have been diagnosed with cervical spinal stenosis, contact us to learn more about your treatment options. We’re here to help you get your life back.

Dr. Gallo replaced two damaged discs on the right side of my neck. She did a great job & gave me relief from pain. Thank you!

It has been a year ( Nov 29th, 2022) since Dr Gallo repaired my spine, redoing a failed L4-L5 fusion, decompressing two additional discs and inserting metal spacers to reinforce my spine. Placing an implanted spinal stimulator, during the surgery and overall giving my life back to me. I can not thank her and the staff enough for the professional and caring treatment I received. I’m 73 yrs old and the pain was to the point I couldn’t sleep, stand, sit or hardly walk and thought the end of my life was near. Thanks to Dr. Gallo. I am about 75% less in the pain that was running my life. I am not pain free, but I didn’t expect tp be. The custom brace designed for me, has worked well. I still use it when driving long distances or know I will need to pick up some weighty items. I live near south western coastal area and travel to Eugene was so very difficult before surgery and now I feel like I am living a pretty normal retired life. I am so pleased with the results of the procedure, I would go beyond highly recommending her and the staff of NeuroSpine. God bless them all for the outstanding work they do. They were the saving blessing of my life !!

Dr Gallo was able to obtain prior approval in a very short period of time. She assessed the situation scheduled me for surgery and is my new hero. I was in less pain while recovering from the surgery the very day of my surgery than I was the day before surgery. I would recommend this surgeon to anyone suffering from the type of pain I lived with for 10 years. My neurologist is amazed at the improvement I showed 10 days post surgery. My only regret is that I did not meet Dr Gallo years ago.

Met Dr. Gallo this week. What a refreshing approach to medical care. She not only is extremely well educated and skilled but also has a personality, sense of humor and candor.

I drove three hours for this appointment and she never rushed me, answered all my questions, filled in the blanks when I didn’t ask enough questions, and after I left and thought of more, she gladly answered my concerns without insisting on another appoonent.

This was a refreshing, reaffirmation of what medical care should be like.

Dr. Catherine Gallo is an amazing doctor. She gave my husband his ability to walk again after a tragic fall that left him with paralysis and loss of blood flow to his spine.
