Default Spinal Stenosis Question....

...from some other posts. If PN is due to spinal stenosis would the manifestation of the PN be only below the level of the spinal stenosis or those immediate nerves damaged by the SS? So if the spinal stenosis was in the lumber region for example, then only the lower part of the body affected by the spinal stenosis would have altered sensations?

Likewise if someone had a spinal stenosis higher up in the cervical or thoracic spine they could have arm/hand neuropathy???? What about facial neuropathy - would spinal stenosis be eliminated from the equation completely?
