What is Epidural Steroid Injections?

An epidural steroid injection delivers anti-inflammatory medication directly around irritated spinal nerves in the epidural space. It is one of the most common and well-established interventional treatments for radiating back, neck, arm, and leg pain.

What it can help with

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Spinal stenosis
  • Sciatica and radiculopathy
  • Degenerative disc disease

What to expect

The procedure typically takes 15 to 30 minutes using image guidance for precision. Most patients go home the same day. Relief may build over several days, and your specialist will discuss whether a series of injections is appropriate.

Every treatment plan at Clearway is individualized. Your specialist will review your history, examination, and imaging before recommending any procedure.
