A member asked:
I think i asked this question before, had a cortisone shot 3 months ago, lasted two days, yesterday i had a transforaminal epidural, will i have a problem?

Problem?: You should not have a problem due to the frequency of injections (i think you are worried about having too many). This is one of the best conservative procedures for pinched nerves.
