Frequently Asked Questions

Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the spine. It can cause pain, stiffness, and progressive fusion of the vertebrae.
Common symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis are back pain, stiffness (in the morning, after waking up or after resting), reduced flexibility of the spine, and pain in the buttocks and hips.
Ankylosing spondylitis treatment aims to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, prevent complications, improve mobility and function, and improve the quality of life for those with the condition.
The available treatment options for ankylosing spondylitis include medications (like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, and biologic therapies), physical therapy and exercise, posture correction, back pain surgery (in severe cases), and lifestyle modifications.
Yes, medications can help manage ankylosing spondylitis by reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and slowing down the progression of the disease. Commonly used medications are NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), and biologic therapies.
Yes, DMARDs can be used to manage ankylosing spondylitis. These drugs work by suppressing inflammation and modifying the course of the disease.
Yes, biologic therapies such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors have shown effectiveness in treating ankylosing spondylitis. These medications target molecules involved in the inflammatory process.
Common side effects of medications used for ankylosing spondylitis may include gastrointestinal issues, liver abnormalities, increased risk of infections, and skin reactions.
Yes, physical therapy and exercise are essential components of ankylosing spondylitis management. They can help improve flexibility, strengthen muscles, maintain posture, and reduce pain and stiffness.
Exercises that promote spinal mobility, stretching, and strengthening are recommended for individuals with ankylosing spondylitis. Examples include swimming, yoga, tai chi, and specific range-of-motion exercises.
Yes, heat therapy (such as warm showers or heating pads) and cold therapy (such as ice packs) can temporarily relieve pain and stiffness associated with ankylosing spondylitis.
Maintaining good posture and spinal alignment is essential in managing ankylosing spondylitis. Proper alignment can help alleviate pain, prevent deformity, and promote better mobility and function.
In severe cases of ankylosing spondylitis with spinal deformity or instability, surgery may be considered. Surgical options include spinal fusion, osteotomy, and joint replacement to improve function and correct deformities.
Surgical procedures for ankylosing spondylitis may include spinal fusion (arthrodesis), osteotomy (bone realignment), and joint replacement (such as hip replacement or knee replacement) to address severe joint damage.
While no specific diet can cure ankylosing spondylitis, maintaining a healthy weight and a nutritious diet contributes to overall well-being. Some individuals may find that avoiding certain foods, such as those that trigger inflammation, helps manage symptoms. Supplements like omega-3 fatty acids may also have anti-inflammatory properties.
Some individuals with ankylosing spondylitis find alternative or complementary therapies like acupuncture, massage therapy, and herbal supplements helpful in managing symptoms. However, discussing these therapies with your doctor is important to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
Smoking is linked to increased disease activity and poorer treatment outcomes in ankylosing spondylitis. It is recommended to quit smoking as it worsens symptoms and reduces the effectiveness of medications.
Yes, ankylosing spondylitis can cause complications in other parts of the body, such as inflammation in the eyes (uveitis), heart problems, and lung involvement. Regular monitoring and appropriate treatment are important to address these potential complications.
Women with ankylosing spondylitis should consult their doctor before planning pregnancy or starting contraception methods. Some medications may need to be adjusted to ensure the safety of the mother and the baby.
Yes, ankylosing spondylitis can affect the eyes, causing inflammation known as uveitis. It can also involve other organs, such as the heart and lungs, leading to complications that require specialized care.
Ankylosing spondylitis is associated with other conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), psoriasis, and reactive arthritis. It's important to monitor for these associated conditions and manage them appropriately.
A rheumatologist, a specialist in inflammatory conditions, typically manages ankylosing spondylitis. They have expertise in diagnosing and treating ankylosing spondylitis and work in collaboration with a primary care physician to provide comprehensive care.
A rheumatologist plays a crucial role in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis. They specialize in diagnosing and managing inflammatory conditions, prescribing appropriate medications, monitoring disease activity, and coordinating care with other healthcare providers.
Yes, psychological support or counselling can be beneficial for individuals with ankylosing spondylitis. Living with a chronic condition impacts mental health, and counselling helps individuals cope with the emotional challenges, stress, and depression that may arise.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important in managing ankylosing spondylitis. Regular exercise, maintaining good posture, managing stress, and getting adequate rest can contribute to symptom relief and overall well-being.
Yes, weight management is important in ankylosing spondylitis as excess weight strains the joints and worsens symptoms. Maintaining a healthy weight through appropriate diet and exercise alleviates stress on the joints and improves overall mobility.
Yes, stress management techniques like relaxation exercises, mindfulness, and stress reduction strategies can help individuals cope with the challenges of ankylosing spondylitis and reduce the impact of stress on symptoms.
Currently, there is no cure for ankylosing spondylitis. However, symptoms can be controlled with appropriate management and treatment, and individuals can lead active and fulfilling lives.
The long-term outlook for individuals with ankylosing spondylitis varies. While it is a chronic condition, with proper treatment and self-care, many individuals can manage their symptoms, maintain mobility, and lead fulfilling lives.
In certain cases, ankylosing spondylitis may lead to disability, especially if the condition is severe and not effectively managed. However, early intervention, proper treatment, and lifestyle modifications can help minimize the risk of disability.
Ongoing research focuses on understanding the underlying causes of ankylosing spondylitis and developing new treatment options. Advances in biologic therapies and personalized medicine show promise in improving outcomes for individuals with the condition.
Yes, ankylosing spondylitis can affect children or adolescents. The condition is known as juvenile spondyloarthritis and may have unique features and challenges compared to adult-onset ankylosing spondylitis.
Yes, lifestyle modifications, such as regular exercise, maintaining good posture, and early intervention with appropriate treatment, can help slow down the progression of ankylosing spondylitis, improve symptoms, and preserve joint function.
