Utility of Intramuscular Corticosteroids for Radicular Low Back Pain
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Low back pain is a common symptom that functionally disables many people. When the low back pain is accompanied by pain that shoots down the leg, it is felt to be caused by a herniated disc. We are conducting this study to determine if a powerful anti-inflammatory agent will decrease the pain and functional impairment that is associated with this illness.
