Overuse Injuries
Subjecting the sacroiliac joints to prolonged stress can cause overuse injuries. These types of injuries are commonly seen in sportsmen who train excessively or in people who engage in heavy lifting or manual labor.
Poor Posture
Poor posture when performing certain activities can worsen the stress on the lower back and sacroiliac joints. It can also lead to pain and inflammation in the joints. It is important to maintain a good posture when performing various activities in the body.
Mechanical Stress and Chronic Micro-Trauma
Sacroiliitis may also occur due to recreational, occupational or sporting activities that exert prolonged and excess pressure on the sacroiliac joints. Any activity that requires sitting, bending, or standing for a long time will cause increased mechanical stress and affect the sacroiliac joints. After a while, overload of trauma on the joint can cause inflammation.
