"Sacroiliac Joint" The right and left sacroiliac joints are located in your lower back near your waist. You can feel these joints by placing your fingers just next to your spine, where there is a small palpable bump. These joints can become irritated with heavy lifting, twisting, running, prolonged sitting, muscular imbalances and arthritis. The pain can be localized to the left or right sides, and may refer pain into your lower leg. Proper diagnosis is important to rule out disc injuries or sciatica. Most cases respond favorably to conservative treatment options and will not cause long term problems. Pain greater than 3-4 days is abnormal and should be treated to prevent an acute injury from becoming a chronic problem.
