Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) claims & compensation in Teesside | Middlesbrough & Redcar

We recognise how profoundly life-altering a cauda equina syndrome diagnosis can be, especially when the impact is severe.

Our experienced solicitors will identify the complex needs of those affected by cauda equina syndrome, and we are here to provide the support you need.

What is cauda equina syndrome?

The NHS describes cauda equina syndrome as a rare and severe type of spinal stenosis where all of the nerves in the lower back suddenly become severely compressed.

CES symptoms include:

  • Sciatica on both sides
  • Severe or worsening weakness or numbness in both legs
  • Numbness in the genital or anal area
  • Difficulty starting to urinate, loss of bladder control
  • Loss of bowel control or difficulty recognising the need to go

The NHS advise that CES requires emergency hospital admission and may require emergency surgery, because the longer it goes untreated, the greater the chance it will lead to permanent paralysis and incontinence.
