lumbar epidural steroid spine injection
Spine Health | Last Active: Aug 24 5:46pm | Replies (40)Comment receiving replies
I am having a lumbar steroid injection in a week. I am incontinet due to several health issues, and wear diapers to manage. Will the injection excerbate my incontinence? Will I be able to wear my diaper during the procedure?

You could call the procedure center. I'm sure they won't have any trouble working around the issue. They'll have a pad underneath you for the procedure and will handle anything that happens. The injection could temporarily (4-6 hours) increase incontinence because it numbs the nerves. I hope the injection resolves your pain.
