I need any advice. It started 12 months ago and hasn't improved even after PT, Injections, exercise, MRI's, CTSCANS, NSAIDS etc. Until this sudden pain I was a very active, healthy 29 year old male.
Symptons:
a) Constant pain at Sacrum area (SI Joint). Muslces on top of Sacrum are very tender and always swollen 24hrs a day.
b) ***When I lift legs individually or rotate hips (rolling over in bed, getting in/out of car, turning in office chair) I get a "popping" or "shifting"/"click" or "pop" right at the SI, tailbone area. This happens frequently throughout my days.
c) Sitting is very painful and gets worse the longer I sit. The only relief is to stand and that makes the pain lessen, but is still there.
d) My groin feels week and pops occasionaly.
e) Over the last year I have also had increasingly more health issues that I never had before: carpal tunnel, popping sholders, aching and popping RT ankle. All of these are new since my back pain started.
I have done all that I know to do. I have an appointement with a Rheumatoid doctor in a month, but after that I'm lost. I hurt 24 hrs a day and it is now affecting my family life, work and outlook on life. I just want to be able to enjoy my kids and wife like I used to.
I have had SI joint injections, PT, NSAIDS, Xrays, MRI (low back), CT Scan (low back).
Do I have a blood or bone issue, back issue, SI issue, Groin issue or a tailbone issue?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, JT
