A member asked:
Mri results said prominant ligamentum flava . borderline central stenosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Interesting: Th ligamentum flavum is an elastic tissue that binds together to form the back wall of the vertebral canal. The central; stenosis means a narrowing in your spine. Hard to be more precise without a drawing or picture. Talk to ur doctor. You evidently have some back pain.
