First, the pain is usually indirect at the beginning of the disease and becomes persistent (chronic) after a few months, usually lasting at least three months.

Second: over the course of months or years, stiffness and pain spread to the spine and neck. The typical symptom is that the stiffness of the diseased area will continue in the morning, and the pain and tenderness will spread to the ribs, shoulder blades, hips and thighs. The symptoms will be relieved after physical activity and hot water bath.
