WHAT ARE SACROILIAC JOINT INJECTIONS ?

A sacroiliac joint injection is used to diagnose and/or treat low back pain and sciatica symptoms associated with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. The medication used typically involves a local anesthetic and an anti-inflammatory injected in or around the sacroilic joint in the lower back.

what our patients are saying

[Since my bulging disc correction] I haven't had pain in my leg at all and had only a little pain in my back from my surgery, but zero pain in my legs, the sciatica is gone.

Today my back and hip feel tremendous. My legs are still a bit weak, possibly from nerve damage that occurred prior to surgery. I’m going to physical therapy 3 times per week. I was back at work on November 15th, 3 weeks after surgery.

Nobody likes to be injured and neck surgery is a delicate procedure, but Dr. Massoud explained what needed to be done, which made me feel more comfortable. [Post-surgery] I felt great, and today the pain is completely gone.

Dr. Patel was so nice and explained everything to me. He likes to see the MRI images and see for himself what shows up on our report. He answered all my questions and I was able to get a late appointment (and by late i mean [past] 6pm).
