Question
i have spinal spanosis between l-4 and l-5. my back does not hurt at any time. when i walk or stand stiil for a few minutes my feet and legs start hurting and a burning feeling under my feet.i had 2 spinal injection to no avail. i had a blood circulation test no blockage.

Answer
Hi George,

It sounds like the source is still the spine even if the injections did not work.  You have several options.  You could see a pain management specialist and consider a spinal cord stimulator.   You could see a neurosurgeon to see if you are a surgical candidate.  If most pain is in the feet, you could consider cryourgery for your foot pain.  See my site regarding cryosurgery.
