Lumbar nerve root block
A lumbar nerve root block is an injection of local anaesthetic and anti-inflammatory steroids to provide pain relief. It is administered to the nerves that run either side of the lumbar section of spine. By providing pain relief, this should help patients to improve their mobility.
