Kalina Pain Institute is a medical clinic, providing excellence in comprehensive pain medicine and minimally invasive spine care, serving the greater Chicago area and west suburbs. We are located in downtown Forest Park. Epidural steroid injections are injections of a short-acting local anesthetic and a long-acting steroid into the epidural space of the spine.
These injections are usually used for pain from herniated intervertebral disks (radicular pain), spinal canal stenosis and some mechanical back pain. Epidural steroid injections may help decrease irritation of the nerves within the spinal canal, which can both decrease pain and improve mobility, allowing some patients to participate in physical therapy and other therapeutic programs.

CBD is a non-psychoactive chemical compound - meaning it won't alter a person's mental state. CBD is purified and then dissolved in an oil base liquid for direct intake. In addition, it can be blended with cream bases or infused in foods for additional routes of delivery. CBD oil is made by extracting CBD from the hemp plant and then diluted with a carrier oil like coconut or hemp seed oil.
