Article Synopsis
  • Doctors often use steroids after a treatment to help with pain and swelling, but there isn't strong proof they actually help and they can have risks.
  • A study with 365 patients looked at whether using steroids after a specific spine treatment (RFA) helped reduce pain compared to not using them.
  • The results showed that pain levels were about the same for both groups after 7 and 60 days, so adding steroids didn't seem to be helpful and could be risky.
