Patient's question:
These past few days, I've been feeling like I have scoliosis, and when I walk, I feel like my body isn't standing straight. At the same time, I notice some back pain. A while ago, I heard from someone I've met that they were diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis. What are the symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis? Am I suffering from ankylosing spondylitis?Doctor's answer:
According to the description, there are symptoms of spinal pain. In such cases, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a thorough examination regarding ankylosing spondylitis. An HLAB-27 test can be conducted to diagnose whether ankylosing spondylitis is present. Based on the test results, symptomatic treatment should be administered. During daily life, it is still important to pay attention to exercising the spine and joint joints, and to take good care of the spinal area.
