Spinal Spondylitis
Spinal spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory condition that primarily affects the spine, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. It most commonly refers to Ankylosing Spondylitis, a type of arthritis that leads to fusion of spinal vertebrae. The condition can significantly impair posture and movement if untreated. Treatment focuses on pain relief, inflammation control, and preserving spinal flexibility through medication, physiotherapy, and sometimes surgery.
Ankylosing Spondylitis – A form of arthritis that causes chronic inflammation of the spine and sacroiliac joints.
Cervical Spondylitis – Affects the neck region, causing pain and stiffness.
Lumbar Spondylitis – Involves the lower back and may cause nerve compression and mobility issues.
Spinal spondylitis is diagnosed using imaging techniques like X-ray, MRI, and CT scans, along with blood tests for HLA-B27 gene, CRP levels, and ESR. A rheumatologist or orthopedic specialist assesses symptoms, medical history, and spinal flexibility before confirming diagnosis.
