Patient's question:
I am 53 years old. Recently, as I have gotten older, I have been experiencing leg pain. I have previously visited the immunology department, but the effect was not significant. I have taken both Chinese and Western medicine, especially when the weather changes, I feel uncomfortable. Is there a way to cure ankylosing spondylitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The treatment methods for ankylosing spondylitis include: 1. Medication: including non-steroidal drugs, immunosuppressants, anti-rheumatic drugs, and traditional Chinese medicine; 2. Rehabilitation therapy: including orthosis treatment, which can prevent the progression of spinal kyphosis and also alleviate pain; 3. Surgical treatment: including total hip replacement, which has a certain effect on improving spinal deformity.
