About this condition
Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects the spine and sacroiliac joints in the lower back, causing pain and progressive stiffness. Over time, inflammation can cause vertebrae to fuse together, reducing flexibility and potentially creating a stooped-forward posture. This condition typically begins in early adulthood and requires ongoing medical management to control symptoms and prevent progression.
