Lumbar Spine
Lower-back pain with and without radiation into the lower-extremities is typically due to lumbar disk herniation and compression of a nerve. If a patient has failed physical therapy and conservative treatments, we can offer lumbar transforaminal epidural injections. This outpatient, minimally invasive procedure involves injecting a small amount of anti-inflammatory into the epidural space in an effort to reduce inflammation and irritation.
This procedure is used for patients suffering from lower-extremity pain, swelling, and/or burning thought to be originating from a sympathetic dysfunction. This is a painless, outpatient procedure in which we inject a small amount of anesthetic into the lumbar sympathetic chain in an effort to decrease symptoms and improve function and quality of life.
