Explore Epidural Steroid Injections
If persistent pain in your neck, arms, back, or legs is disrupting your life, the source might be inflamed spinal nerves. At NorCal Pain Treatment Center in Turlock, we offer a minimally invasive solution: Epidural Steroid Injections (ESI), designed to bring you comfort and renewed mobility.
Conditions like spinal stenosis or a painful pinched nerve from a herniated disc can steal your joy and limit your activities. If this sounds familiar, taking the step to understand epidural injections could be your pathway to significant relief.
The power of an ESI lies in its targeted approach. We deliver a potent anti-inflammatory medication, similar to cortisone, precisely to the area surrounding the irritated nerves in your spine. Using real-time x-ray guidance, our skilled physicians carefully guide a needle to ensure the medication reaches the exact source of your pain, calming the inflammation that’s causing your discomfort.
Imagine the relief of reduced pain, less tingling, and diminished numbness radiating from your spine. For many, this is the reality after an epidural steroid injection. The duration of this relief can vary, lasting from a few days to even years, depending on your individual response and the specifics of your spinal condition.
Beyond just pain relief, an ESI can open doors to a more active recovery. As your pain eases, engaging in physical therapy and exercise becomes more manageable and effective. This renewed ability to participate in rehabilitation is vital for strengthening your spine, improving your mobility, and ultimately supporting your long-term recovery.
