Sacroiliac Joint Pain Treatment from a chiropractic center in MD

Medical Name

The Condition

Sacroilitis Is...

Inflammation around the sacroiliac joint. These joints (on both sides of your pelvic) form the base of your entire spine, so they are very important in creating stability . Most people will point to this area and say they have “lower back pain”, but we fine the “SI Joint” is the culprit more often that not. 

It is quite common for people to have had this pain for months or years with little or no response to treatment (physical therapy, chiropractic, etc). Most practitioners will focus on the low back and not the SI Joint, or they just don’t know how to treat the joint properly.

Typical Treatment: Core rehab, ice/heat/stim, massage

Common Causes of SI Joint Pain

Sacroiliac joint pain does not always have a clear cause. For many, SI joint pain flares up due to another condition, like arthritis or pregnancy. The pain can onset randomly or slowly, appearing only during certain activities like walking or sitting. 

If you notice low back pain or pain in the side, it could be SI joint pain if you also have a secondary condition:

  • Arthritis
  • Pregnancy
  • Post-partum
  • Inflammatory conditions
  • Scoliosis
  • Varying leg lengths
  • Traumatic injuries
  • Infection

SI Joint Pain vs Low Back Pain

During your visit with our chiropractors for Sacroiliac Joint Pain Treatment, we will help assess whether you are experiencing an issue with your SI joint or another part of your back.

We discuss if the pain you are feeling is sharp, dull, an ache, or shooting; we ask about activities that cause the pain to worsen; we’ll help evaluate where the pain starts and if it radiates down the leg, in the buttocks, or up higher into the back. 

For many patients, SI joint pain remains in the buttocks region, where-as other back pain goes higher, above sacrum and into the lumbar spine.

We will help pinpoint exactly what pain you are experiencing and where to apply Sacroiliac Joint Pain Treatment that works and is long-lasting. Our aim is for long-term solutions, not temporary pain relief. 

Dr. Josh Bross’ Take

This is so often misdiagnosed in the medical world. I love seeing patients that come in with this problem (I don’t love that they have the problem just to clarify) because it is something we can resolve fast, when no one has been able to.
