this is not painful at all, well mine wasn’t… Only time I felt any pain was a quick poke and burn when the dr. injected the local to numb the area. Took a total of 5 minutes and then I was up on my feet with no complications. I did have severe lower back cramping the first day but ice packs and rest helped. The lower back pain eased up over the next couple days.
I have had this today, and the pain, i couldn’t bare it. It was the worst pain i’ve ever felt. I hope it stays with this one time injection, but i’m not sure at all, because the pain can return. But the fact is I’m only 16. It’s such a horror. Having this on my age.
To all that have this painful for of back pain i invite you to send a personal message to OBESPRING1982 whom has sent me several messages calling me a crip and laughing that fact that people have this problem. Its disgusting in my opinion so if you feel the need let him know how you feel about people of this nature. Thank you and I all pray for you to eventually have the same result i recieved from the injections which has allowed me to have my life back.
It only lasts 20-30 seconds at most and then your done. It will be tender for the 24-48 hours and then hopefully in 3-7 days you feel relief. Atlest that is what i am hoping for.
i had this done today for a leaking L5 and a hunriated L4&5 like Nisiej im pretty young for this kind of injury at 23. I will say the procedure isnt very painful at all just discomfort. I dont see why you had this injection if this was the worst pain you ever felt tho. It didnt even come close to the back pain i feel every minute. So anyone else having this done dont worry, the Local numbing agent stings a little and then the only other discomfort is the steriods themselves
I saw a treatment of bee stings to the back in the areas of discomfort. I finally tried it a month ago. I thought it was Bull but my pain is sunder control. I don’t recommend this unless you do your research and are ready for stings(you get use to them) or are allergic. It worked for me, The medical community needs to look into this more closely. My father is an MD and both of us were skeptical but it did worked for me. He thinks the venom goes to work on the nerves. Who knows.

it is generally done before ACL reconstruction operations! there is very very huge ache after the operation for 2-3 days! it prevents this ache!
