Cervical Epidural Steroid Injection

What is a Cervical Epidural Injection?

An epidural injection places anti-inflammatory medicine into the epidural space under real-time X-ray guidance to decrease inflammation of the nerve roots, reducing the pain in the neck, shoulders and arms. The epidural injection may help the injury to heal by reducing inflammation. This injection may help treat symptoms of cervical spinal stenosis and cervical radiculopathy. In combination with physical therapy, it can provide a period of relief for several months.
