Thoracic Epidural Steroid Injections
Thoracic epidural steroid injections are done to alleviate inflammation in the thoracic area of the back, by delivering an anesthetic and steroid to the epidural space within the spine. This decreases inflammation of the nerve roots, thus healing an injury. This type of injection can cause relief for up to several months. The procedure takes up to thirty minutes plus approximately forty-five minutes recovery time.
