This video will explain what a cervical epidural is, how it is performed in a surgery center, along with discussing potential risks and outcomes of the procedure.

Cervical Epidurals are a very common treatment for patients suffering from numbness, weakness, pain, or tingling caused from a pinched nerve. Introducing steroids into the epidural space around the effected nerves can help reduce inflammation and help reduce the patient's discomfort.
