Sacral(Caudal) Epidural Injection

The epidural space is between the dural sac (a membrane encasing the spinal cord, spinal fluid and nerve roots) and the vertebral wall.

An epidural steroid injection (ESI) is an injection that delivers long-acting steroids directly into the epidural space. The steroids help to reduce the pain by reducing inflammation around the nerves. A local anaesthetic also used to ‘flush out’ inflammatory agents that may be irritating a nerve.
