A member asked:
Can spinal stenosis make me shorter?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Spinal stenosis has no bearing on your height but spinal stenosis typically results from degenerative changes of the spine which leads to disc space narrowing or disc height loss which leads to overall loss of height with age.
