Sacroilitis

This research aimed to determine the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, LASER therapy and cryotherapy on PPT, Pain and functional disability in patients having Sacroiliitis.

The clinical significance of this adverse effect lies in its impact on quality of life and the potential for misdiagnosis. The symptomatology can be severe enough to limit daily activities and may be mistakenly attributed to a primary rheumatic disease, leading to unnecessary long-term immunosuppressive therapy if the temporal link to isotretinoin is not identified. Therefore, a high index of suspicion is crucial for dermatologists, rheumatologists, and primary care physicians alike. Aim: To compare the effectiveness of High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT) in reducing pain intensity, in patients diagnosed with Isotretinoin-Induced Sacroiliitis.
