If chronic back or neck pain is keeping you from enjoying life, epidural steroid injections at ECPC Pain Specialists may provide the relief you need. Our board-certified interventional pain medicine physicians have extensive experience delivering these targeted treatments to patients throughout Wake County. With four convenient locations and a patient-centered approach grounded in evidence-based medicine, we’re committed to helping you find lasting relief and get back to what matters most.
What Are Epidural Steroid Injections?
Epidural steroid injections are minimally invasive procedures designed to reduce inflammation and relieve pain in the spine and surrounding nerves. During the procedure, a combination of corticosteroid medication and local anesthetic is carefully delivered into the epidural space—the area surrounding the spinal cord and nerve roots. This targeted approach allows the medication to work directly at the source of pain, offering more effective relief than oral medications alone.
Conditions Treated with Epidural Steroid Injections
These injections are particularly effective for treating a variety of spine-related conditions, including herniated or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, and radiculopathy. Whether your pain radiates down your arms or legs, or you’re experiencing chronic lower back or neck discomfort, epidural steroid injections may be an appropriate treatment option. Our physicians conduct thorough evaluations to determine if this procedure is right for your specific condition.
What to Expect During Your Procedure
At ECPC Pain Specialists, epidural steroid injections are performed in a comfortable outpatient setting using fluoroscopic guidance to ensure precise medication placement. The procedure typically takes just a few minutes, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. Many notice immediate pain relief from the anesthetic component, while the steroid medication begins reducing inflammation over the following days.
