Vascular Claudication
	Paresthesia

Claudication, or leg pain while walking, can occurs as a result of either an inadequate blood supply to the legs or compression of the spinal canal. Although some claudication results from certain spinal conditions (neurogenic), such as stenosis, it also may be attributed to changes in blood vessels (vascular).
