If epidural steroid injections do not work to relieve neck pain, what would be the next step?

Other options: I would hope that you have been to physical therapy for your problem prior to having the injections. If not, then you need a trial of pt. There are other injections that may benefit other than epidurals. The doc who performed the epidurals should be able to discuss other injection options. Medications are another option and surgery as a last resort.

See below: Other injections may help. Try physical therapy. There is always surgery.

Consult Pain Doctor: Many options are available for both surgical and non- surgical management of neck pain. Talk to your pain doctor and see if together you can work out a treatment plan for you. The surgical option is another option that can be explored with a neurosurgeon.

Options: Get 2 nd opinion, consult with neurosurgeon , consider physical therapy.
