Epidural Steroid Injection Near Atlanta
What Is an Epidural Steroid Injection?
An epidural steroid injection (ESI) is a minimally invasive procedure used to reduce inflammation and relieve pain caused by irritated spinal nerves. During the procedure, a combination of anti-inflammatory medication and anesthetic is delivered directly into the epidural space surrounding the affected nerves.
Epidural injections are commonly used to treat neck, back, and radiating arm or leg pain and can help patients return to normal activities while avoiding or delaying surgery when appropriate.

The injection is performed using fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance to ensure precise placement of medication around the affected nerve roots. Most procedures take less than 30 minutes.
