About

The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is identified as a potential origin of low back pain and referred pain to the lower limb, with a prevalence rate ranging from 7% to 30%. Typically, SIJ pain manifests in the buttock and occasionally extends to the posterior aspect of the ipsilateral thigh, resembling pain originating from lumbar spine sources, such as the zygapophysial joints or intervertebral discs.
