hi The prognosis for untreated stenoses at cervical level is not a healthyone espcially if with radiculopathy, its not only painful but leads to constant stress mental and physical and hypertensive patients may get thier BP raised further with incumbent menta stress and agony, although BP may not be directly raised with stenotic lesion, but indirect cause is always there.Lumbar stenoses may progress gradually and walking without pain may become impossible in long run, but one may still be able to with difficuty.Depending on severity surgery may be indicated, so consult a spine surgeon.Take musce relaxant tabs and anti-anxiety medicines after prescription from doctor. Use of cervical collar and lumbo-sacral belt may be needed with physical therapy exercises inbetween. Best wishes
