Routine back exercises, disectomy on l4/l5. no help. i have had 13 spinal injections since 05/11. will too many injections harm me? only thing working

Depends: There's many different type of injections and different type injection could use different mixture of medication. I believe your doctor will determine the type injection is appropriate for you or not. You can ask this same question to the doctor who performed those injection on you.
