Chronic low back pain and SI joint pain are often misdiagnosed—and for many patients, the real source of pain is irritation of the middle cluneal nerves, not the joint itself. In this video, Dr. Demetrio Aguila, pain-focused peripheral nerve surgeon, explains: • What the middle cluneal nerves are • How they transmit pain from the sacroiliac (SI) joint • Why steroid injections and radiofrequency ablation only provide temporary relief • The difference between open SI joint denervation and endoscopic middle cluneal nerve surgery • How minimally invasive nerve surgery can provide lasting pain relief with faster recovery Many patients labeled with “SI joint dysfunction” actually experience pain because these small nerves are sending constant pain signals to the brain. By precisely disconnecting those nerves using a minimally invasive endoscopic approach, pain can be relieved without fusing the SI joint. If you suffer from: ✔️ SI joint pain ✔️ Chronic lower back pain ✔️ Buttock or pelvic pain ✔️ Temporary relief from injections that quickly wears off —you may be a candidate for middle cluneal nerve surgery.
