Ankylosing spondylit: Ankylosing spondylitis is an inherited condition associated with hla-b27 factor on cellular surfaces. It is more common in males, affects the lower back initially, can cause heart valve issues, and occasionally causes an internal eye inflammation termed uveitis which can be recurrent. Coordinate with your ophthalmologist and your rheumatologist.
