The spinal nerves extend out to our body, arms and legs to communicate movement and perception of pain. The passages through which these nerves enter and exit are called foramina.<\/p>\n<p>Foraminal stenosis is a condition caused by narrowing of the foramina.

Depending on your symptom severity and diagnosis, we always recommend conservative treatment options before any surgical intervention. Our specialists may suggest:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Medication such as anti-inflammatories<\/li>\n<li>Cold and heat therapy to increase blood flow and address inflammation<\/li>\n<li>Spine strengthening exercises or physical therapy<\/li>\n<li>Therapeutic injections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Surgical Options for Foraminal Stenosis<\/h3>\n<p>If you are still experiencing pain after conservative treatment methods are exhausted, a surgical solution is the next logical step. We are leaders in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/spine-treatments\/endoscopic-spine-surgery\/\">endoscopic spine surgery<\/a>, which uses a small keyhole incision that is less than 1\/4 inch in the size. Unlike most surgeons who may utilize an MIS spine fusion, our endoscopic surgeons can selectively target the foraminal stenosis with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/spine-treatments\/endoscopic-formainoplasty\/\">endoscopic foraminoplasty procedure<\/a>. This endoscopic surgery can visualize the affected pinched nerve and use a laser or motorized burrs to decompress and free the nerve without a spinal fusion.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/contact\/\">Schedule an Appointment<\/a> <a class=\"btn btn-secondary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/virtual-second-opinion\/\">Obtain Second Opinion<\/a><\/p>\n\n                                                        \n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n        \t\t\t<\/div>\n        \t\t<\/div>\n        \t<\/div>\n\n               \n        \t\n        <\/section>\n\n\n\n    <section id=\"cta-block_ecc98582d9419fee8de9341a19b91b38\" class=\"cta cta-bg-red js-animated-text-container\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"cta-wrapper\">\n                <div class=\"cta-overlay-wrapper\">                    \n                                                                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-md-down\" alt=\"Dr Abrams explaining spine x-ray\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-1024x266.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-768x199.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-1536x398.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>                            \n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-xs-down hidden-lg\" alt=\"Dr. Abrams consulting\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab.jpg 663w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab-300x189.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/>                            \n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"330\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-sm-up\" alt=\"Dr. Abrams laughing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile-208x300.jpg 208w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/>                                                                                        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta-content\">\n                                            <h2>Find Foraminal Stenosis Doctors in Phoenix, AZ and the Surrounding Area<\/h2>\n                                        <p>The spine surgeons at DISC look forward to helping you achieve relief from foraminal stenosis so you can live your life free from painful symptoms.
