What is an Epidural Steroid Shot?

  • Post category:Pain

Do you know what an “Epidural Steroid Shot” is?

This non-surgical procedure injects pain medication directly into the epidural region, the space between the outermost layer of tissue covering the spinal cord and the inside surface of bone.

Most often, an epidural shot is used to treat lower back pain or pain that extends down the leg as the result of inflammation by targeting the nerve roots to quickly reduce swelling and inhibit future inflammation.
