Many individuals with sacroiliac joint pain will recover and return to normal activities. Proper posture, proper body mechanics, and certain exercises should be maintained in order to ensure ongoing back health. Elderly patients and those with severe disease may get only partial benefit with joint or nerve injections and medications may need to be continued but at much lower doses. Injections may be repeated safely if required after an acceptable interval.
Your pain physicians and physical therapists that deal with people with sacroiliac joint pain can help outline an individualized treatment program.
