What symptoms of AS do you experience?

Chronic, long-term back pain is one of the most commonly reported health problems in the United States. Not surprisingly, back pain is also the most reported symptom by people living with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).

Other symptoms may also occur with axSpA, such as uveitis, fatigue, psoriasis, heel, shoulder, foot, and other joint pain.

  1. I've lost the motion in the ocean.

    1. SI joint pain, low back pain, and discomfort in my right shoulder and ribs. The stiffness and fatigue often leave me feeling drained, making everyday tasks feel daunting. The sleepless nights add another layer of difficulty.

        There is nothing quite like AxSpA pain.
        It certainly can be debilitating.

        That sounds so uncomfortable.
