Back Pain Relief In Naples
Chronic back pain, sciatica, and spinal inflammation can significantly impact your quality of life. If conservative treatments like physical therapy or oral medications haven’t provided relief, caudal steroid injections may be an effective option. At APSI Wellness, with locations in Maysville (KY), Cincinnati (OH), and Naples (FL), our pain management specialists provide expert-guided caudal epidural injections to help patients find lasting relief.
What Are Caudal Steroid Injections?
A caudal epidural steroid injection is a minimally invasive procedure that delivers anti-inflammatory medication directly into the caudal epidural space—the area near the base of the spine. This treatment helps reduce swelling, nerve irritation, and pain caused by:
-
Herniated or bulging discs
-
Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
-
Sciatica (nerve pain radiating down the leg)
-
Degenerative disc disease
-
Failed back surgery syndrome
How Do Caudal Steroid Injections Work?
-
Diagnostic Evaluation – Your provider at APSI Wellness will review your medical history and may order imaging (MRI, X-ray) to confirm the source of pain.
-
Precise Injection – Using fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance, a steroid-anesthetic mixture is injected near the affected nerves to reduce inflammation.
-
Recovery & Relief – Many patients experience pain relief within 48-72 hours, with effects lasting weeks to months.

What to Expect During Treatment
-

After the Procedure: Mild soreness may occur, but most patients resume normal activities the same day.
