Persistent lower back pain | 10 Early Signs of Ankylosing Spondylitis You Shouldn’t Ignore!Added:
Here are 10 early signs and symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis.
Number one, persistent lower back pain.
Not your typical back pain.
Unlike mechanical back pain from poor posture or an injury, AS pain is inflammatory. Meaning it's worse in the morning and after periods of rest. Pain typically starts in the lower back and sacroiliac joints around the hips and pelvis and gradually worsens over time.
What's unique, the pain improves with movement. If your back pain feels better after stretching or exercise, it could be AS.
