Cervical Epidural

A cervical epidural is an injection that can relieve neck, arm or shoulder pain caused by inflammation affecting the nerves in your spine. The injection is made into the epidural space that surrounds the roots of the nerves that come out of your spine. A cervical epidural targets the nerves that connect to the upper part of your spine. The injection contains a local anaesthetic and a steroid that can provide temporary pain relief and reduce the inflammation.
