Sacroiliac Joint Steroid Injection
What it Treats
A sacroiliac joint steroid injection is used to relieve pain and inflammation in the lower back and buttock caused by sacroiliac joint dysfunction or arthritis. It can help improve mobility and reduce discomfort for patients who have not responded adequately to conservative treatments such as physical therapy or medications.
How the Procedure Is Performed
The procedure is performed using imaging guidance, such as fluoroscopy, to accurately place a needle into the sacroiliac joint. A combination of steroid medication and local anesthetic is injected to reduce inflammation and block pain signals, providing prolonged relief and helping guide further treatment options.
