You might feel little worse the first day after an epidural injection because of local inflammation and irritation at the injection site, a temporary increase in pain known as a “steroid flare,” nerve irritation from the injection, and the pressure of the injected fluid. However, by the next day, you usually start to feel the benefits of the injection, often experiencing significant pain relief and improved mobility. #painmanagement #backpain #medicalstudent #doctor | Precision Care Medical & Sp
