A Step By Step Guide of an Epidural Steroid Injection for Back Pain with Oksana Gauthier, D.O.

#orthopedicsurgeon #orthopedicpartners #backpaintreatment In this Video, Dr. Oksana Gauthier walks through each step of an Epidural Steroid Injection. Epidural Steroid Injections are used as part of a complete treatment plan for back pain patients. Their target function is to reduce inflammation and decrease pain, numbness, tingling, and other symptoms associated with conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Pain Management specialists like Dr. Gauthier use fluoroscopic (X-ray) and/or ultrasound guidance to ensure precise needle placement. They then can deliver the injection which works in two ways: 1) The corticosteroid medication reduce inflammation around the affected nerve roots 2) The local anesthetic provides immediate pain relief. In this video, Dr. Gauthier explains that it is normal to feel anxious before a procedure, but in the end, "most patients do have a sigh of relief and say, 'Hey, that wasn't that bad.'" Listen to Dr. Gauthier explain and show what to expect before, during, and after the injection. As with any medical procedure, epidural steroid injections should only be performed after a thorough evaluation and discussion of the risks and benefits with your personal healthcare provider.
