In most cases it’s progressive but self care matters. Patients who don’t have any invasive procedure seem to do best

. Arachnoiditis causes chronic pain and neurological deficits. The disease does not improve significantly with treatment and does not have a predictable pattern of symptoms, severity, or progression.
Arachnoiditis can be managed, not cured. With appropriate treatment, it is possible to lead a normal life. However, people with this condition may need to change their treatment approach as symptoms change. Many find that their symptoms get worse even with excellent medical care.

Arachnoiditis causes chronic pain and neurological deficits. The disease does not improve significantly with treatment and does not have a predictable pattern of symptoms, severity, or progression. Some people with arachnoiditis may have milder symptoms which do not get much worse over time, although the ageing process usually does add to the severity of the symptoms. Others may quickly progress to severe neurological symptoms that lead to paralysis. The majority of people with arachnoiditis appear to fall somewhere between these extremes.

The outlook for someone with arachnoiditis is complicated by the fact that the disorder has no predictable pattern or severity of symptoms. Arachnoiditis is a disorder that causes chronic pain and neurological deficits and does not improve significantly with treatment. Surgery may only provide temporary relief

Progressive but with treatment for inflammation they say progression can be slowed. Each case may be different.
