What is Ankylosing Spondylitis?
This disease causes pain and stiffness in the back, neck, and hips. It begins with inflammation around the bones in the spine or in some joints. As it progresses, it causes the bones in the spine to fuse together so the back is less flexible and may affect the ribs and other parts of the body.
Ankylosing spondylitis can make it hard to do simple things, such as getting dressed, getting up from a sitting position, and looking side to side. This is why it’s so important for you to tell your doctor if you are having ongoing pain and stiffness symptoms in your lower back and hip area.
