Injections, while they may mask, might also keep you out of surgery. I have had epidurals go both ways for me; one series kept me out of surgery, others did not matter and needed the surgery anyway. Reduce the inflammation enough for the nerve roots and cord to decompress, I have seen cases avoid surgery (at least in the short term)! You can always DO surgery....you can't UNDO it....
