definition
Relating to the sacrum and ilium, or to the region of the lower back where they are located.
I had, among other deformities of my spine, a twisted sacroiliac joint and lower lumbar spine.
Indeed a Senior Clinical Physiotherapist within the Royal Free Hospital was not able to see an unstable sacroiliac joint and lower lumber spine.
In a further parallel with our patient, this case had severe sacroiliac pain.
Treatment An x-ray guided sacroiliac joint injection may help in localizing the source of the pain.
It is used in the treatment of ' back problems ' and associated injuries such as sacroiliac strain and some lameness in horses.
Injections are commonly given in the lumbar region, sacroiliac region, thoracic and cervical spine.
