Can you tell me some other websites where I can get reliable information about ankylosing spondylitis?
Posted June 14th, 2005 by Matt
Ankylosing spondylitis is an inherited form of arthritis that affects men and women between the ages of 17 and 35. It is more common than multiple sclerosis, cystic fibrosis, and Lou Gehrig’s disease combined.
There are three very good sites with information of different kinds. These include the Spondylitis Association of America (www.spondylitis.org), the Ankylosing Spondylitis International Foundation (ASIF) [www.asif.rheumanet.org], and www.allaboutbackandneckpain.com.
Albrecht Falkenbach, MD, PhD. Disability Motivates Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis for More Frequent Physical Exercise. In Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. March 2003. Vol. 84. No. 3. Pp. 382-383.
