Epidural Injection
GENERAL INFORMATION
An epidural injection, or spinal injection, is a procedure with a focus of alleviating pain in the body. It is a therapeutic procedure that applies anesthetics, anti-inflammatories, and steroids to nerves and joints. If pain is coming from the arms or legs this will require a different kind of injection than if it were coming from the spine itself.
