概要

In this episode of Oklahoma Low Back Pain Today, Dr. Keely John Booth and the Spine and Joint specialists at Elite Pain and Health explain the "shopping cart sign" and how it points to spinal (lumbar) stenosis. They cover causes (arthritis, bone spurs, bulging discs, spondylolisthesis, and congenital narrowing), typical symptoms like leg heaviness, numbness, and weakness, how standing worsens symptoms while forward flexion relieves them, and the steps to diagnosis including physical exam, X-rays, MRI, CT myelogram, and diagnostic injections.

The hosts also review conservative treatments—physical therapy, posture and core strengthening, and epidural steroid injections—when surgery may be considered, and when to seek specialist care. This episode emphasizes that stenosis is a treatable mechanical problem and encourages listeners experiencing walking-limiting symptoms to get evaluated.

This podcast is produced and directed by Dr. Keely John Booth, MD, a production of the Spine and Joint Treatment Specialists at Elite Pain and Health. For more information, visit epainhealth.com or call 405-444-7246.
