Thank you for sharing your details At 43, sacroilitis usually develops when vata becomes lodged in the sacroiliac joints Ante layer of heat builds up inside the joint space, which is why you feel deep pain and stiffness in the lower back, especially when sitting for long The inflammation, your doctor mentioned is exactly this combination of aggravated vata and pitta in the pelvic joints
Because your symptoms are only a few months old, the joints can heal well with the right approach. The aim in Ayurveda is to calm the inflammation inside the side joint, reduce the stiffness around the sacrum and slowly stabilise the area, so the pain does not keep returning

Hello I can understand how heartbreaking and a pain in the lower back sacroiliitis kind of pain that makes you feel severely troubled in a basic sitting, standing, and sleep would be.
However, with proper Ayurvedic care targeting inflammation at the root, we can definitely achieve strengthening the pelvic joints and getting back the lost mobility.
AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING
In Ayurveda sacroiliitis is bound to be: ✅ Asthi majja gata vata ✅ Sandhigata Vata with Amajanya Shotha
This is caused primarily by:
Aggravation of Vata (due to sitting too long, stress, dryness, irregular meals)
Formation of Ama (inflammation, stiffness, swelling)
Depletion of Asthi & Majja Dhatu (weakness of the sacroiliac joint support)
So the fundamental problem is Vata + Ama + Dhatu kshaya. Our work will be:
👉 Take the inflammation off (Ama) 👉 Lower Vata in Kati (lower back) 👉 Make sacroiliac joint strong again 👉 Help the patient to regain his/her ability to move freely and pain disappear for good
AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN
PANCHAKARMA (Detox + Pain relieving therapies) Correct administration of these therapies leads to 90–100% sacroiliitis relief.
1.Kati Basti – 7 days Warm medicated oil is kept on sacroiliac joints
tissues get rid of the most common symptoms of the disease, such as the inflammation, stiffness, and the sharp pain Also, through strengthening the ligaments it helps to correct SI joint alignment as well Oil to be used Kottamchukkadi Taila (for inflammation + swelling) And Mahanarayana Taila (for giving Vata relief at the deep level)
2.Patra Pinda Sweda (Leaf poultice therapy) – 7 days Good for the symptoms of pain resulting from the stiffness, muscle spasm, and the radiation
3. Basti Chikitsa (extremely suggested) It helps bring about the balance of Vata inside and thus alleviates the root cause of the problem.
In case inflammations are severe: Dashmool Niruha Basti (to reduce Ama + inflammation) We can also recommend Erandamuladi Niruha (perfect for sacroiliitis)
In case that the issue of weakness is more: Balashwagandhadi Matra Basti (nourishing)
INTERNAL MEDICATION
1. Yogaraj Guggulu One tablet two times daily after food → Reduces Vata, stiffness, joint inflammation
2. Simhanad Guggulu One tablet two times daily → Removes Ama + anti-inflammatory
3 Dashmoolaristha 20 ml twice daily → Very effective for sacroiliitis inflammatory process
4 Rasnadi ks tab 2 tablets twice daily → Helps the pain that is caused when the nerve radiates
DIET PLAN
✔️Foods to Include Hot and fresh meals Turmeric + black pepper milk Cow ghee (1–2 tsp/day) Ginger, garlic, ajwain Mung dal khichdi Bone broth / soup

Milk products at night Cold drinks, sour foods, vinegar Bakery items, chips, packaged foods Long fasting or irregular meals Too much sitting
Daily Routine Do not sit for more than 30 minutes without a break Lower back should be heated with hot fomentation twice a day Gentle pelvic tilts & cat–cow stretches Keep your belly warm Sleep on a firm mattress
✅ Recommended Investigations
MRI LS Spine + SI Joints (if not recent) CRP, ESR (to check inflammation) Vitamin D3 and B12 levels HLA-B27 (if stiffness is very high in the morning, to rule out autoimmune spondyloarthropathy)
You will get fit again — sacroiliitis is very responsive to Ayurvedic therapy that balances Vata and is anti-inflammatory. Most people, with regular treatment, experience 70–90 relied with consistent treatment

To address sacroiliitis through an ayurvedic lens, begin with focusing on reducing the inflammation in the sacroiliac joint, which is often linked to vata dosha imbalance. Incorporating changes in diet, lifestyle, and certain home remedies can contribute to long-term relief and healing.
Diet is essential; favor warm, cooked, and lightly spiced foods. Opt for easily digestible meals like khichdi with ghee, which can balance vata. Increase intake of foods like root vegetables, grains like rice, and mildly spiced soups. Avoid cold, raw, and dry foods as they can aggravate vata. Incorporate spices like ginger, turmeric, and ashwagandha–known for their anti-inflammatory properties. Drink warm herbal teas such as ginger or tulsi tea, which can soothe inflammation. Minimize caffeine and alcohol, both of which can increase vata dosha.
Regular oil massage (abhyanga) using warm sesame or mahanarayan oil on the lower back and hips may offer relief. Massage gently in the morning before a warm shower. This helps in softening and calming the affected nerves and tissues. Practicing pranayama, especially nadi shodhana, can balance vata and support healing, done regularly in a quiet, calm environment. Yoga postures like the cat-cow, child’s pose, and gentle back stretches can enhance flexibility without straining the back. Make sure these are done with caution and possibly under guidance initially.
Reduce mental stress as it heightens vata imbalance. Engage in activities that relax the mind like meditation or light reading. Ensure proper sleep routine, ideally by going to bed by 10 PM.
Importantly, if the pain worsens or there’s any nerve involvement, consult a healthcare professional for timely intervention. Collaborating with an ayurvedic practitioner as well as a regular doctor for a comprehensive treatment plan should be considered.
Sacroiliitis, as your doctor pointed out, involves inflammation in the sacroiliac joints, connecting your lower spine and pelvis. From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, this condition is seen as a disruption of the Vata dosha, which governs movement and is linked to joint health. Managing this imbalance can reduce inflammation and discomfort effectively.
Firstly, focus on your diet to pacify Vata. Include warm, oily, and easily digestible foods. Think rice, cooked vegetables, moong dal, and ghee. Avoid cold, raw, frozen, and dry foods as they can aggravate Vata. Ensure you’re keeping hydrated but skip iced drinks.
Next, specific herbs may help reduce inflammation. Ashwagandha and Guggul are traditional choices; they have anti-inflammatory properties and support joint health. Consider taking these as supplements after consulting with a practitioner familiar with your medical history.
On a daily basis, practice gentle yoga postures to enhance flexibility and strength in the lower back and pelvis area, but avoid any that cause pain. Pranayama (breathing exercises) such as Anulom-Vilom can also be beneficial as they calm the mind and balance Vata.
Regular oil massages with warm sesame oil can also relieve stiffness and pain; apply it warm to the affected area and let it absorb for 30 minutes, then rinse with warm water. This also aids in grounding Vata energy.
Monitor your body’s response to these changes. Consistent pain or worsening symptoms warrants revisiting your healthcare provider, as some cases require more targeted medical intervention. Holistically addressing stress through meditation can also support your overall well-being, keeping the mind calm which in turn stabilizes Vata.
Sacroilliitis is inflammation of lumber and sacral joint. Sitting precautions are very important, need to have special soft pillow while sitting. Start with Amrutha guggul 1-0-1 after food with water Sinhanad guggul 1-0-1 after food with water Laxadi guggul 1-0-1 after food with water Avoid walking on rough roads or travelling on rough roads.
