Ankylosing Spondylitis


In severe cases of ankylosing spondylitis, the inflammation that is caused by AS can lead to fusion of the spinal vertebrae, thus limiting the mobility of the individual. Additionally, severe instances of ankylosing spondylitis can result in permanent damage to certain weight-bearing joints (such as the hip joints and knee joints) which may result in the need for joint replacement. It is for this reason that diagnosis of AS is so important, and proper and continued treatment of ankylosing spondylitis is equally important. By detecting AS early and by treating the inflammation that results in joint destruction and vertebrae fusion, the painful and limiting effects of ankylosing spondylitis can be minimized (though the existing effects, i.e. existing joint damage, may never be reversed).
