What is a Caudal Block?
A Caudal Block is a type of epidural injection given through the sacral hiatus (lower back near the tailbone) to deliver local anesthetics and/or steroids. It is commonly used for:
• Pain relief during and after surgeries (especially in children).
• Chronic lower back, pelvic, and leg pain due to conditions like sciatica, herniated discs, or spinal stenosis.
It can be used both as an anesthesia technique and a pain management treatment.

Treatment ( Procedure)
A mixture of local anesthetic and corticosteroid is injected into the caudal epidural space.This reduces swelling around irritated nerves and provides long-lasting pain relief.
Real-time imaging ensures that the needle is placed in the exact location for maximumeffectiveness and safety.
The medication spreads upward along the spinal nerves, alleviating pain in the lower back,legs, and pelvic region.
Patients are monitored for a short period after the injection to ensure stability and assessinitial pain relief.
Depending on severity, patients may require a series of injections spaced weeks apart tomaintain long-term relief.
Why You Should Not Delay
Delaying treatment may worsen chronic pain, reduce mobility, and affect quality of life. Early intervention with a caudal block provides faster relief, reduces dependence on pain medications, and supports long-term recovery.
