Epidural Steroid Injection (ESI) (Lower Mainland) [English] Permalink Public
It is a procedure which involves injecting corticosteroids (steroids) and local anesthetic into the epidural space, around the spinal cord. This is a common treatment for many types of low back and leg pain. Some people need a series of injections spread of a period of time.
