Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disorder primarily affecting the sacroiliac joints and the axial skeleton. This condition can also involve peripheral joints and other articular structures. Musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, and spinal immobility are common burdens faced by individuals with this disorder.

In ankylosing spondylitis, the vertebrae may fuse together, leading to a rigid spine, which can worsen to the point of a stooped posture. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in controlling pain and stiffness and in preventing significant deformity.

Symptoms of Ankylosing Spondylitis

• Pain and Stiffness: Primarily in the low back and hip joints.
• Bony Fusion: The vertebrae may fuse together, resulting in a hunched back posture.
• Neck Involvement: Loss of mobility in the neck, leading to difficulty turning the head.
• Systemic Symptoms: These include iritis (inflammation and redness in the eyes), fever, fatigue, and loss of appetite.
• Other Complications: In rare cases, ankylosing spondylitis may also affect the heart and lungs.
