How does sacroiliac joint pain manifest?
Many people have sacroiliac pain that begins spontaneously. However, over half the time Sacroiliac (SI) Joint pathology can be related to a specific event, often an injury. It is difficult to directly relate any specific functioning difficulty (including walking, sitting, standing, sleeping on the affected side, job activity, bowel movements, cough, sneeze, etc.) to the sacroiliac joint as a source of pain. The most significant indication is the specific location of the pain below the L5 joint.
