A steroid injection dramatically reduces inflammation, easing pain caused by swollen nerves. The team often injects steroids into joints and the epidural space along your spine (epidural steroid injection).

When you still have spine pain despite interventional treatments, Las Vegas Spine & Pain Center may recommend a minimally invasive procedure to repair the underlying problem.
Examples include performing vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty to treat spinal compression fractures and implanting the Vertiflex® interspinous spacer device to decompress pinched spinal nerves.
