A sacroiliac joint injection targets the SI joint, located at the base of the spine where it connects with the pelvis. This injection delivers a combination of steroid and anesthetic directly into the joint to reduce inflammation and relieve pain. It can be both diagnostic and therapeutic, confirming the SI joint as the pain source and providing relief for weeks to months.
Stabilize your foundation—targeted relief for lower back and pelvic pain.
Eat normally unless sedation is planned. Wear loose, comfortable clothing and avoid applying lotion near the injection site. Let your provider know if you’re taking blood thinners or have a history of medication allergies. Arrange for a ride home if sedation is used.
Mild discomfort or soreness at the injection site may occur. You may notice pain relief within a few hours if a local anesthetic is used, followed by lasting improvement from the steroid. Avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours. Monitor your pain level and report improvements to help guide further treatment.
