Pain in the Back! But only on one side?

One Sided Back Pain can often be misdiagnosed and can actual be your pelvis and not your back.

The Sacro-illiac Joint is actually in your pelvis, and these joints can be the source of your pain!

( You can the position of these joints as the two dimples at the base of your spine , just above where the top of your underpants come to )

Low back pain felt in the lower right or left side of the back is a common presentation.

And the origination of this pain can be from the SI joints.

SO IS IT A BACK PROBLEM OR A PELVIS PROBLEM?

Often it is both!

SI dysfunction , can be the  result of improper function of the spine, which  causing the SI joint to become inflamed and therefore painful.

Sufferers of SI problems experience low back pain in the lower right or left side of the lower back. Chiropractors from the Four Spine and Health Clinics in Crows Nest, North Sydney, Mosman and Gladesville, have been seeing SI sufferers for years.

Dr. Yoon from the Crows Nest Spine and Health says “ you often see with SI sufferers, pain going from a sitting to standing position, turning over in bed, sitting in a chair for long periods. But it is the pain experienced from Sitting to Standing that really gives the clue its the SI Joint! The confusing thing is that SI pain can mimic Back pain, by referring  pain into the buttocks, groin and hips, thus tricking practitioners into thinking its Sciatica, or hip problems”
