  9. CAN I GET AN EPIDURAL...

Can I get an epidural steroid injection, for my herniated disc, the day before I have my lip injections?

May 16, 2016
Asked By:Caroline899 in Connecticut, CT

I regularly get Restylane Silk injections in my lips. I normally stop taking any nsaids before my injections to prevent bruising (having accidentally taken some once without issue). I have an epidural injection (cortisone) scheduled the day before and want to know if this could cause any interactions? I scheduled the two appointments close together to be off work less time and hope this is ok. Any advice is appreciated!

Thanks for this question and raising this concern. Silk should be injected more superficially and away from the muscle. Speak with your injector about the technique that is being used to place the Silk in your lips. If injected like old Restylane, the patient sees more swelling and the product...
