Case Summary  |  Low Back Pain


Condition Back Lower (Lumbar) Sacroiliac Joint Pain
Case Description

I have had low back/SI pain for more than 3 years. I don't know how it started but I experience pain everyday. I have tried acupuncture with short-term relief, chiropractic treatment also with short-term relief. More recently I tried physical therapy, which included an intensive core strengthening component. The physical therapy helped some but I am not completely pain-free. Currently, I take Motrin for pain and stiffness, which seems to help some but I am still searching for long-term relief.
