Caudal Epidural Steroid Injections

Unlike other types of epidural injections, a caudal approach delivers anti-inflammatory medication into the epidural space through the sacral opening at the base of the spine. By targeting irritated spinal nerves in this way, Caudal ESIs can reduce nerve pressure and ease pain linked to herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and sciatica.
- Non-surgical option for chronic and acute back or neck pain
- Reduces dependence on long-term oral medications
- Provides pain relief that supports participation in physical therapy and rehabilitation
- Performed quickly and safely with little recovery time

A herniated Disc (Lumbar) occurs when the cushioning disc between vertebrae bulges or ruptures, pressing on nerves; Caudal Epidural Steroid Injections reduce inflammation and nerve irritation to ease back and leg pain.
Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal, resulting in compression of the spinal cord or nerves. This condition can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the back and legs. Epidural steroid injections can help reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms associated with spinal stenosis.
Degenerative disc disease involves the gradual breakdown of the spinal discs, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Epidural steroid injections can provide relief by reducing inflammation and minimizing pain associated with this condition.
Sciatica is nerve pain caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, radiating from the lower back down one or both legs; a Caudal ESI reduces pressure on the nerve roots to ease sharp, radiating pain.
Post-surgical back pain, also called failed back surgery syndrome, is persistent pain after spine surgery; a Caudal ESI can reduce ongoing nerve irritation and improve comfort and mobility.
