Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS)

Ankylosing Spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that mainly affects the spine and sacroiliac joints, causing pain and stiffness. Over time, it can lead to fusion of the spine, reducing mobility and flexibility.

Common Symptoms of AS

  • Chronic back pain, especially in the lower back and hips
  • Morning stiffness at back and hips that improves with movement
  • Pain and swelling in joints (knees, ankles, shoulders)
  • Reduced spinal mobility or hunched posture
  • Fatigue and low energy
  • Breathing difficulty due to stiffness in the rib cage
