- Many cases of low back pain are often incorrectly attributed to protruding discs, even when neurological symptoms are absent, leading to potential misdiagnosis of sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
- The study aimed to evaluate how frequently sacroiliac joint dysfunction occurs in patients who have low back pain and positive disc findings but no claudication or neurological issues.
- After conducting diagnostic infiltrations, results showed significant pain reduction in patients, suggesting that sacroiliac joint dysfunction is a major factor in low back pain and should be included in differential diagnoses.
