This disorder which is like ankylosing spondylitis, is actually a systemic autoimmune disease and is best treated and followed by a rheumatologist. In addition to physical therapy and pain relievers & nonprescription anti-inflammatory meds like ibuprofen, there's a host of meds that are used in treating this condition. A rheumatologist would select the best treatment for your case
