Ankylosing Spondylitis

Ankylosing spondylitis is a long-term inflammatory condition that affects the spine, causing stiffness and pain that can gradually reduce flexibility. Physiotherapy helps maintain spinal mobility and posture, slowing the impact on daily life.

Common Symptoms

Do's

  • Perform daily spinal mobility exercises
  • Maintain an upright posture during activities
  • Stay physically active with low-impact exercise
  • Follow your prescribed physiotherapy program consistently

Don'ts

  • Don't remain inactive for long periods
  • Don't slouch while sitting or standing
  • Don't skip medication or physiotherapy sessions
  • Don't ignore new or worsening joint pain

When to see a physiotherapist: See a doctor if back stiffness lasts more than three months or worsens with rest, and consult a physiotherapist for a long-term mobility plan.
