A member asked:
How do you treat chronic back pain caused by an epidural?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back pain: There might be no relation between your back pain and previous epidural injection. The back pain can be caused by muscle strain, spinal stenosis, ruptured disc, nerve impingement ... The treatment depends on the cause of the pain. Please see a pain specialist for evaluation and treatment.
