Patient's question:
I was carefully diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis in the hospital. The doctor said I have had this disease for two months. I have been hospitalized for treatment for ten days, but the treatment effect is very slow, and there is still pain in the spine. I have ankylosing spondylitis, can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Ankylosing spondylitis is an autoimmune disease, which is a relatively stubborn condition. This disease can lead to joint fusion and restricted movement, among other symptoms. As a result, it can cause severe pain, requiring the use of anti-inflammatory, blood-activating drugs, hormones, or medications such as immunosuppressants or biologic agents for treatment. Regular rehabilitation training should also be performed, and physical therapy methods can be used as well.
