At Apex, we understand the severity of chronic back pain and its debilitating effects. Our epidural steroid injection offers a targeted, minimally invasive solution to provide relief and promote healing.

Patients suffering from chronic back, neck, or leg pain that hasn't responded to conservative treatments such as physical therapy or medications can immensely benefit from epidural steroid injections. It is especially beneficial for those looking to avoid or delay more invasive procedures like surgery.

Upon visiting Apex, our expert will evaluate your condition and determine the exact location for the injection. The procedure is performed under live X-ray guidance to ensure accuracy. The skin and underlying tissues are numbed before inserting a thin needle into the epidural space. Once the medication is delivered, the needle is removed. The entire process typically lasts less than 30 minutes. While some patients might feel immediate pain relief due to the anesthetic, the steroid's effect can take a few days to manifest. You might experience some soreness at the injection site, but this is temporary. Post-procedure instructions will be provided, ensuring a smooth recovery and optimal benefits from the treatment.
