What Is The Success Rate Of Epidural Injections?

Epidural steroid injections can provide temporary pain relief for herniated or bulging discs, but success rates vary, typically between 50% and 70%. Relief may last a few weeks to several months. The injection reduces inflammation around the nerve but doesn’t fix the underlying disc issue. For long-term improvement, pairing chiropractic care or decompression with exercise offers better results and a more natural, lasting solution.
