Overview

Causes

  • Heavy lifting, especially incorrect training or when muscles aren't prepared for the activity
  • A traumatic injury or sudden impact, such as a motor vehicle accident or a fall, affecting your spine, lower back, pelvis or buttocks
  • Spondyloarthropathies, which include ankylosing spondylitis, arthritis associated with psoriasis and others
  • Degenerative arthritis, also called osteoarthritis of the spine, causing degeneration of the sacroiliac joints, which can cause mild inflammation and pain
  • Pregnancy, because the pelvis must stretch to accommodate childbirth
  • Infection of the sacroiliac joint, sometimes caused by bacteria in food (brucellosis)

Another method of classifying its causes is-

  • Bilateral & symmetrical
  • Bilateral & assymetrical
  • Unilateral
