Summary

This study looks at whether a quick patient interview and physical exam can help doctors identify when chronic low back pain comes from the sacroiliac joint. Researchers will compare these findings with a diagnostic injection to confirm the source of pain. The goal is to improve diagnosis and reduce reliance on imaging tests. The study involves 140 adults with chronic low back or buttock pain.
