Question 1

Not typically: Sacroiliac dysfunction is caused by too little or too much movement at the sacroiliac joint. It is at the meeting of the iliac bone (you can feel it when you rest your hands on hips) and lower spine. Muscle imbalance of the gluteal and core muscles most common cause.  In families with hyper mobility or inflammatory arthropathies, it may be more common.  Pt is the 1st step in treatment.

Depends: Si joint dysfunction can be chronic or acute, depending on the cause and length of time one has had symptoms.  In general, si joint dysfunction is due to inflammation of the si joint; prolonged inflammation can result in arthritic changes to the joint surface.
