What is an Epidural Injection?
Many women fear motherhood because of the excessive pain
they have to face during pregnancy and the labor journey. So,
naturally, people get intrigued when experts introduce a
method to relieve those excruciating contraction pains.
The epidural injection may seem like a lifesaver for many. But
is it as helpful as the experts state? Or are we being overly
optimistic? Keep reading to learn more about this popular pain
relief method for pregnant women.
More Specific The Epidural Injection?
An epidural is a form of spinal anesthesia that numbs your
spinal nerves. As a result, the pain signals are blocked in a
specific body part.
What is Epidural Injection Used For?
The pain-numbing method is a common practice to provide
pain relief to people. Though there are various uses, the most
common ones are during labor and childbirth. The lack of
feeling helps women in labor and patients who suffer from
chronic back pain.
Common Uses
of Epidural
Injection
During
Childbirth
01
During Childbirth
The epidural injection for pregnancy is usually given during
the first stage of labor when a woman starts getting regular
contractions. As the injections numb your lower back and legs,
the pain of contractions is significantly reduced. Another
reason women favor epidurals compared to other pain relief
methods is that you can increase or decrease the dose according
to need.
For Major
Surgeries
02
For Major Surgeries
The top one is you are awake and aware of the surroundings
and can hold your baby immediately after delivery. Not only
that, but epidural anesthesia can also reduce the risk of
respiratory complications after surgery compared to general
anesthesia. Often, an epidural injection instead of general
anesthesia is given to patients before major surgery
To Heal Chronic
Back Pain
03
To Heal Chronic Back Pain
An epidural injection for back pain is a blessing for people who
suffer from chronic lumbar pain issues. An epidural steroid
injection (ESI) is administered for back pain and contains
potent anti-inflammatory medicine.
Does Epidural Hurt?
An epidural is given via a long needle that goes into your
spine. So, before injecting it, your anesthesiologist will numb
the lower back area of your spine. Once the numbing injection
is inserted, you may feel slightly burning or tingling, as with
other injections. After that, the epidural is put in.
Epidural Injection Cost
Epidurals aren’t cheap. Depending on the concentration and
company, an ESI may cost between $1000 to $1500. If you
have medical insurance or other health plans, you may benefit
from a discounted price or have to pay nothing.
When to See a Doctor?
Feeling agitated when trying to sleep for a long time can affect
your health. Sleep is one of the major parts of our everyday
life, and a bad sleep cycle can affect our whole life. Therefore,
it’s vital to take the condition seriously. It can be normal if you
occasionally have a bad night’s sleep due to putting strain on it
or lifting weights. But persistent and chronic back pain that
affects the quality of your sleep for more than a week needs
medical intervention.
