Tx spinal stenosis.: The treatment of spinal stenosis is usually surgical. Physical therapy and spinal injections may help the pains, but the only thing that would help the actual extra tissue growth within the spinal column would be surgery. The area of involvement would need to be defined by MRI scanning.
