Not sure what the "Si joint" is, but guessing its the hip/leg socket. I also had a fall this past year and experienced a herniated disk which resulted in pressure on the Sciatic nerve which runs through the hip socket and results in pain down my left leg. Chiropractic and physical therapy over 4 months and I'm pretty well recovered.

Featured excercises where lower back and abs and using an eliptical trainer and lots of stretches - as prescribed by the professional medical folks. I'm 46 - comparable to you.

Good luck.
