Treatment for sacroiliac joint (SI joint) sclerosis and hypertrophy typically begins with conservative measures, including physical therapy, pain management with anti-inflammatory medications, and activity modification. If these approaches are ineffective, an orthopedic surgeon may consider injections, such as corticosteroids or nerve blocks, to reduce inflammation and pain. In more severe cases, surgical options, such as SI joint fusion, may be explored to stabilize the joint and alleviate symptoms. The specific treatment plan will depend on the patient's individual condition and response to initial therapies.
