Satish sacroillitis and back pain which you are feeling can be ankylosing spondylitis. i would suggest you to get your HLAb 27 and anticcp antibody test. For the time being these are the things you can do
1. Take one tablet piroxicam daily
2. Physiotherapy needs to be continued
3.Hot water fomentation and avoidance of cool temperature and AC
