Life Changing Benefits of SI Joint Fusion
Discover Relief from Axial Back Pain with a SI Joint Fusion Many people who suffer from lower back pain have a hard time finding a permanent solution that works best to cub their pain. If you’ve tried everything from physical therapy to steroid injections without success, it may be time to ask about a revolutionary solution for sacroiliac joint pain. Understanding the Sacroiliac Joint and Its Role in Back Pain Did you know that up to 30% of pure back pain comes from the sacroiliac (SI) joints? These are the joints on either side of your spine, connecting it to your pelvis. Traditional treatments often failbecause they don’t address the root cause—these specific joints. At West Michigan Surgery Center, we are offering a groundbreaking way to manage this type of pain effectively. How the Sacroiliac Joint Procedure Can Transform Your Life Imagine a simple, minimally invasive procedure that offers lasting results. That’s what our sacroiliac joint procedure promises. By fusing the Sacroiliac (SI) joint, we limit its motion, thereby reducing pain significantly. The procedure involves a small incision, about the size of a nail, where our Nationally accredited team at West Michigan Surgery Center implants a device across the SI joint using image guidance. The implants help to limit movement and maintain fixation, which may help with recovery. Patients are asleep for just a matter of minutes, and after a couple of sutures and bandages, they are released to go home. Recovery time depends on the individual, but usually runs anywhere from a few weeks, to months depending on the nature of your job, and ev eryday activities.
