During a cervical epidural injection, you will be positioned on an X-ray table, and the injection site will be cleaned and numbed with a local anesthetic. Using fluoroscopic guidance, a needle will be carefully inserted into the epidural space near the affected nerves in the cervical spine. A mixture of a corticosteroid and a local anesthetic will then be injected. The entire procedure usually takes less than 30 minutes.
