A lumbar caudal epidural steroid injection is an outpatient procedure for treating low back and leg pain.
Facet & root blocks are injection into a specific joints of spine and along the nerve roots as required.
Introduction
In a lumbar epidural injection, an anti-inflammatory medicine is injected into the epidural space to reduce inflammation. A local anesthetic (numbing medicine) may also be injected. When the injection is done through the bony opening in your tailbone then this is called a caudal epidural injection. An injection in a joint of the back is called a facet joint injection. An injection along the nerve root sleeve is called a root block.
Getting Ready for Treatment :
• Provide a list of all medicines you take, including aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs.
• Don’t eat 6 hours before the injection but you can have a light drink 4 hours before injection.
• Arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home after the procedure.
• Bring all X-ray & MRI images on the day of the procedure
• You need to stop blood thinning drugs like asprin, clopidogriel etc. 5 – 7 days before the injection. But consult your cardiologist before hand.
During the Procedure:
The injection takes just a few minutes. But extra time is needed to get ready. Alocal anesthetic will be used to numb your skin. The doctor will then insert a thin needle directly into the epidural space. A type of X-ray or C-arm may be used to ensure the safe and proper position of the needle. Contrast “dye” may be injected into your back, this helps get a better image. Once the doctor is sure the needle is correctly placed the medicine will be injected.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I consulted Dr Shankar Acharya for spinal surgery in 2017 in Delhi. I had severe back pain and had consulted many physiotherapists, acupuncturist, homeopathic doctors, but there was no respite. Then I consulted SR Shankar Acharya. We were satisfied with the consultation and the surgery. After 3 years also, there is no pain. I religiously followed his instructions and took all necessary medications. I ensure annual check up as precautionary measure.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ For me he is like God. He has treated a lot of members of my family and all are doing well now. He is the best in his field. But his down to earth nature and hardwork always inspires me a lot. His surgery hand is too good. I will always be thankful to him and his team for taking so much of care of my husband and me at his surgery time. He always responds me whenever we need him and gives his advice. Staying in pune, doing surgery in Delhi, was only smooth because of him and his team.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I would say, He is the best Spine Surgeon in India. 10 years back when my 12 year old daughter had a serious spine injury, I had to take a decision to get the best treatment and surgeon.
Finally after consulting many experts we have decided that Dr. Shankar Acharya is the one who can do it perfectly.
It was a long procedure of 8 hours and on the 4th day we were at home. Now my daughter is 22 years, perfectly fit and can do all her work including dancing, football, cycling......Thanks Dr. Shankar Acharya.
I would recommend Dr. Shankar Acharya as he is the omnipotent in Spine surgery..

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Doctors are Gods gift to mankind but in today's commercial world, its difficult to find trustworthy and reliable doctors.
After having met Dr. Shankar Acharya through various references, the only thing I can say is that I felt that am in safe hands. He is compassionate about his patients and gives absolutely trustworthy and unbiased advice.
I was suffering from severe back pain and it had aggravated to Cauda Equina Syndrome.
Dr. S Acharya and his team did my surgery on 3rd July 2021. His timely advice saved me. I am fine now and recovering well. A big thanks to Dr. Shankar Acharya and his team.
