Patient's question:
My son was sent to the hospital a few days ago due to sudden back pain and was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis. After a period of hospital treatment, my son has returned home for rest and recovery. Now we are very worried about his condition worsening, so I would like to ask the doctors what precautions should be taken for ankylosing spondylitis?Doctor's answer:
Patients with ankylosing spondylitis should primarily avoid inappropriate activities and exercises, as well as maintaining a prolonged static posture. Under the guidance of a doctor, aerobic exercise can help stabilize the patient's symptoms. In daily life, it is best to avoid lifting heavy objects with one hand or carrying large, heavy items on one side. Always maintain the normal physiological state of the spine. If joint pain, eye inflammation, or other discomforts reappear, seek medical attention immediately.
