Effective Relief for Lower Back and Hip Pain Without Surgery
What Is SI Joint Dysfunction?
The sacroiliac (SI) joints are located where the lower spine connects to the pelvis, supporting the weight of the upper body during movement. When one or both SI joints become inflamed, misaligned, or move abnormally, it leads to a condition known as SI joint dysfunction. This can cause pain in the lower back, hips, or buttocks, and often mimics conditions like sciatica or a slipped disc.
SI joint dysfunction is commonly underdiagnosed, yet it plays a major role in chronic lower back and pelvic pain.
Common Causes of SI Joint Dysfunction
Direct trauma to the pelvis or lower back (falls, accidents)
Poor posture or prolonged sitting
Repetitive strain from running, lifting, or twisting
Muscle imbalances in the core, hips, or glutes
Pregnancy or childbirth, due to pelvic ligament stretching
Arthritis or joint degeneration (osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis)
Leg length discrepancies or spinal alignment issues
Previous spinal surgery (especially lumbar fusions)
Signs and Symptoms of SI Joint Dysfunction
Pain in the lower back, buttocks, or groin region
Pain that worsens with prolonged standing, walking, or climbing stairs
Pain that reduces when lying down or changing positions
Stiffness or tightness in the hips and pelvis
Difficulty sitting or rising from a seated position
Pain during activities like turning in bed, bending, or twisting
Uneven weight distribution while standing or walking
Referred pain to the thighs (not typically below the knees)
