Hoboken, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/06/2016 -- The Spine & Sports Health Center is pleased to announce that epidural steroid injections (ESIs) are available to treat sciatica and lower back pain. Since the beginning, The Spine & Sports Health Center has sought to help patients find relief from joint and spine pain by utilizing revolutionary non-surgical procedures and treatment options. The medical practice operates out of three offices located in Hudson County, New Jersey, and accepts patients from all over the New York metropolitan area.
An epidural steroid injection is a common non-surgical procedure that has been used by medical practitioners for over five decades to provide patients with sufficient relief from lower back, leg, arm, and neck pain. Furthermore, patients who are in physical therapy or taking part in a sports rehabilitation program, often receive epidural steroid injections to not just find pain relief, but to help their programs progress.
During this 15-30 minute procedure, the patient's skin is numbed using a local anesthetic, a needle is inserted into the spine's epidural space, and the steroid solution is injected. Once the procedure is complete, the patient is monitored for up 15-20 minutes and then sent home. While epidural steroid injections will certainly provide a patient with adequate pain relief, the effects of this procedure are often temporary, and can last anywhere from several weeks to up to a year.
Any patient who opts to receive an epidural steroid injection at their office in Hoboken, NJ, Bayonne, or Jersey City, should expect it to be administered by one of their board-certified physicians. To learn more about the epidural steroid injections offered at their office in Bayonne, NJ, Hoboken, or Jersey City, or what exactly the procedure entails, please contact The Spine and Sports Health Center at 855-968-7742, or fill out a contact form on their website.
