What Are Epidural Injections?

Epidural injections target inflammation around spinal nerves, offering effective relief for back and neck pain. This procedure reduces nerve irritation, improves mobility, and is a powerful non-surgical pain management solution. Whether you're experiencing pain due to a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or nerve impingement, our epidural injection treatments can help you move more comfortably and reclaim your quality of life.

Epidural injections deliver powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly into the space surrounding your spinal nerves, known as the epidural space. This minimally invasive procedure calms inflammation, decreases nerve compression, and significantly reduces pain, especially for those experiencing radiating pain, numbness, or tingling. As one of the best ways to relieve chronic pain without surgery, epidural injections can provide both short — and long-term relief, especially when combined with a comprehensive pain management plan.

Our surgical center is led by Dr. Akash Bajaj, widely regarded as the best epidural injection doctor in Los Angeles. With double board certification and expertise in interventional spine care, Dr. Bajaj customizes each treatment based on your specific condition and pain profile to ensure optimal results.
