Summary
This study tested whether an injection of sterile amniotic fluid into the spine can relieve pain and disability caused by spinal stenosis better than a standard steroid injection. The amniotic fluid is a natural substance with anti-inflammatory and nerve-healing properties and may be safer than steroids. The study involved 61 adults with chronic back and leg pain who had not improved with other treatments.
