A member asked:
I take meloxicam for arthritis in my neck, i have trouble with my si joint this last 24hrs would it help with the pain and inflammation in my joint?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Meloxicam may help with sacroiliac joint inflammation. However, if your si joint is painful due to leg length discrepancy , or altered gait, it will not help. Remember, si joint pain can be referred from the quadratus lumborum muscle , and the l4-5 disc.
