What is Foraminal Stenosis Caused by Trauma?
Foraminal stenosis, one of the specific types of spinal stenosis, is often a result of the aging process. However, it is possible for trauma to cause foraminal stenosis. For example, if someone were involved in an accident that resulted in a bulging or herniated disc. This injury could cause the discs between your spinal bones to become damaged or slip out of place and lead to foraminal stenosis.
