What Are Caudal Epidural Injections Birmingham?

Caudal epidural injections are a minimally invasive treatment used to help relieve lower back pain and pain that travels into the legs, such as sciatica.

During the procedure, a doctor injects medication—usually a local anaesthetic and corticosteroid—into the epidural space through the sacral hiatus, an opening near the bottom of the spine. The steroid is intended to reduce inflammation around irritated spinal nerves.
