Epidural Injection vs Epidural Anesthesia: What You Need to Know

When managing pain, inflammation, or undergoing surgery, you might hear terms like "epidural injection" and "epidural anesthesia." Both involve placing medication in the spine's epidural space to relieve discomfort or block sensation, but they're used for different purposes and in other medical contexts. Let's break down these terms to understand better what they mean.

What is the Epidural Space?

Firstly, a little anatomy lesson: the epidural space is a space in the spine just outside the membrane that surrounds the spinal cord. Medication can be placed here to numb or block sensations.

What Is It?
Epidural injections typically contain steroids and relieve back, legs, or arms pain. They are most commonly used for herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or sciatica.

How Does It Work?
The medication helps to reduce inflammation in the spinal nerves, providing temporary relief from pain. It's more of a therapeutic measure designed for symptom relief.
