What Is An Epidural Injection?
Epidural injections provide targeted relief for those dealing with persistent pain. At Aspire Spine & Headache Pain Center, these treatments help people regain comfort and mobility with a focus on effective, personalized care. A lumbar epidural steroid injection delivers medication directly into the epidural space around the spinal cord. This area surrounds the nerve roots and is a common source of pain due to inflammation or nerve compression. The injection includes a corticosteroid to reduce swelling and an anesthetic for immediate relief. Other types of epidural steroid injections include caudal steroid injections and sacroiliac joint steroid injections, each targeting specific pain areas. Pain management physician Dr. Daljit Buttar performs this treatment with fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance for needle placement to ensure precision and effectiveness. If back pain limits your daily life, schedule a consultation at our Raleigh or Charlotte, NC practice to explore your options.
What Does An Epidural Injection Do?
Epidural injections for back pain are designed to reduce inflammation and block pain signals from irritated nerves. This treatment can help with conditions, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and sciatica. The effects can last for weeks or even months, allowing people to engage in daily activities with less discomfort.
