Kas yra Epidūrinė injekcija?
Epidural injection is one of the most advanced and effective invasive pain management procedures. It is used for spinal problems such as herniated discs, nerve root inflammation, or chronic back pain.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
A steroid mixture is injected into the epidural space, the space between the spinal cord and the dura mater. The injected drugs work locally, reducing inflammation and pain, allowing the patient to recover more quickly.
The procedure is performed using a mobile X-ray machine with a C-arm, ensuring accurate drug administration. Epidural injections are applied to both the lumbar and cervical spine, depending on the localization of the pain.
