Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Dysfunction: Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment

Body Pamela R.

Conclusion

SI joint pain can be short-term, especially when caused by pregnancy, injury, or strain. With chronic conditions, including AS and osteoarthritis, pain may come and go.

A positive attitude, regular activity, and a prompt return to work are all very important elements of recovery. If regular job duties cannot be performed initially, modified (light or restricted) duty may be prescribed for a limited time. In most cases, pain can be relieved significantly with treatment.
