What Is Foraminal Stenosis? The word foramen means opening. The foramen in the spine is a small opening in between vertebrae where the spinal nerves leave the central spinal canal and move out into your arms or legs. This foramen or opening can often become narrowed and pinch the nerves. The word stenosis means narrowed. So, foraminal stenosis refers to a narrowed opening in the spine where the spinal nerves are being pinched. Foraminal stenosis or pinching of the spinal nerves can result in radiculopathy. Radiculopathy is radiating nerve pain.
