Question 2

What is an epidural injection?

Accepted Answer

The epidural injections that our pain management physicians do starts with an IV (of medicine which is given intravenously) to help you relax and sedate you so that you don’t move during the procedure. The doctor will then insert the thin needle directly into the epidural space.  Fluoroscopy, a type of video x-ray, is used to ensure the safe and proper position of the needle.  A dye may also be injected to make sure that the needle is in the correct spot.  A corticosteroid is safely placed in the epidural space.  A picture is then printed out showing the medicine on top of the disc and the nerves.
