Often the new AS fighters have some questions in mind. Especially when they find that they have a disease that is not curable. Only it can be managed. In this way how will they live their life and what should they do?
Let me tell you that you do not need to panic. Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is not a life-threatening disease. Yes !! It is certainly true that physical disorders are more in this disease. In such a situation, instead of being frustrated with life, confront with AS with complete confidence.
Let's first know about this disease in detail.

What is ankylosing spondylitis? You may have known this. Now let us understand what challenges you face and what to do to deal with them.
Challenges:
- Protecting Joints from Fusion
- Keep bones and muscles healthy
- Managing pain in different parts of the body
- Keeping vital organs healthy
- Protecting physical posture from Affecting
Let's now know the solutions. First of all, know that it is very important for AS fighters to adopt a disciplined and routine life style. In the beginning, there may be some difficulty in adjusting, but gradually you will be able to adapt yourself to routine life. In particular, keep in mind that if you are careless, the AS will be activated and if you are careful, then AS will prove to be passive and less effective.
Solution :
Avoiding joints from fusion: It is extremely necessary and useful to exercise stretching regularly to deal with this problem. So do the necessary exercises on a regular basis (contact specialist physiotherapist for exercise)
Keeping bones and muscles healthy: It is worthwhile to take as much nutritious food as it is necessary to exercise regularly. Regularly include green vegetables, fruits (except citric grade fruits) in your diet. Yoga in this case proves to be very beneficial. By which stiffness is also controlled. The muscles are strong and the movement remains in the body.
To manage pain in different parts of the body: First of all, check the foods that cause pain due to food. Do not use aggravating foods. Note that pain-raising foods may vary for AS fighters. It is therefore important to identify foods that increase the pain by themselves. Also, continue taking medicines as prescribed by the doctor. You can contact a specialist dietician to determine the diet.
Keeping vital organs healthy: This is not only necessary for a healthy person, but for patients suffering from any disease, this process becomes even more important. By freeing the vital organs of the body from toxic elements, we can live a healthy life. Detoxification also keeps the body safe from the side effects of medicines. Apart from this, they can also reduce their impact with the prevention of diseases. Meditation is also beneficial for this.Stay away from smoking, tobacco and alcohol use. Consumption of these increases the activation of the AS.
To protect the effect of physical posture: There is also a need to do some special exercise daily. Also, regularly check your physical posture. On the advice of the doctor, you can also use the help belt to correct the body posture. Protect your body from shock as much as possible. Regular cycling and swimming to prevent physical posture being affected.
People with AS may also have other related health conditions. These can include:
- acute anterior uveitis (or simply iritis) - a chronic eye inflammation that can cause blurred vision, eye pain and redness, and sensitivity to light
- psoriasis - a non-contagious inflammatory skin condition that causes a red patchy, scaly skin rash covered in silvery scales that can be painful or itchy
- inflammatory bowel disease - two medical conditions that affect the digestive system, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, causing bowel inflammation, sores, bleeding, and, in the case of Crohn's disease, scarring of the digestive system. Symptoms include abdominal pain, cramps, diarrhea, fatigue, blood in the stool, and fever.
- heart problems - people with AS may also be at increased risk for heart problems
Having AS does not necessarily mean that you will also develop these conditions, nor does having one of these conditions mean AS is also present. Talk to your doctor if you have any concerns.
