Sacroiliac Joint Injection

Sacroiliac Joint Injection is available through Mishe Health Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

A sacroiliac joint injection is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat pain originating from the sacroiliac joint, located at the base of the spine where the sacrum meets the pelvis. During the procedure, a local anesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication are injected directly into the sacroiliac joint under fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance. This injection helps to alleviate pain and inflammation in the joint, providing both diagnostic information and therapeutic relief. By numbing the sacroiliac joint, the injection helps confirm whether the joint is the source of the patient's pain. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory medication can reduce inflammation and provide longer-lasting pain relief. Sacroiliac joint injections are commonly recommended for individuals with chronic low back pain, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, or sacroiliitis, and they can be part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include physical therapy and other interventions.
