A member asked:
Can you get a vaginal infection from a selective nerve root block? from maybe the steroids ?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Treat your infection , it has nothing to do with injection of nerve root, unless you had vaginal exam in contaminated gloves or some other way of contamination.

Steroids,....: ...May alter immune status and enable yeast infection, but generally blocks have no effect.
