A member asked:
I've ankylosin spondylitis, and currently feeling pain in my knees(assumin it's related to as).what can i do to ease pain apart from using drugs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The basics: It's unusual to see AS in a female but patient's with this condition are more prone to "tendonitis" which is treated with relative rest, meaning back off on aggravating activities, local ice followed by gentle stretching and strengthening as symptoms subside. In general, it will be important to maintain healthy weight/diet and engage in regular exercise/stretching program within tolerance.
