Re: Lumbar spine injury and tailbone pain

I don't know if the injection will help, but I can tell you how it feels! IT HURTS!!!!
Although, after my discogram, the epidural wasn't as painful. But, if you've has steroid injections in your muscle or joint, I think this will be more painful.
You have to determine if it's worth it, I guess. If I can't walk without it, it's generally worth it. Just keep in mind that this is part of the steroid rule: more than 3-4 a year or there's muscle degeneration and bone loss.
That's why I tend to pick my battles on this kind of stuff....good luck, dear.
