Epidural injections are a proven, minimally invasive treatment designed to provide relief from chronic pain caused by inflammation or irritation of spinal nerves. At Portland Pain Medicine, we utilize state-of-the-art imaging guidance to deliver anti-inflammatory medication precisely into the epidural space, reducing swelling and alleviating pain.
Conditions Treated with Epidural Injections:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Spinal stenosis
- Sciatica and nerve root irritation
- Degenerative disc disease
How Epidural Injections Work
Epidural injections target the source of inflammation by delivering corticosteroids directly around the affected nerve roots. This reduces pain and improves mobility, allowing patients to resume daily activities with greater ease. The procedure is performed in-office and typically takes less than 30 minutes with minimal downtime.
