summary

Ankylosing spondylitis (as) is a disease with the main symptoms of sacroiliac joint and spinal attachment point inflammation. It was strongly associated with HLA-B27. Some microorganisms, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, have common antigens with their own tissues, which can induce abnormal immune response. It is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by fibrosis and ossification of large joints of limbs, annulus fibrosus of intervertebral disc and its adjacent connective tissue, and ankylosis of joints. Ankylosing spondylitis belongs to the category of rheumatism, is a kind of serum negative spondyloarthropathy. The etiology of the disease is still unclear.

Treatment of cervical ankylosis

First, the course of cervical spondylosis is relatively long. The degeneration of intervertebral disc, the growth of bone spurs and the calcification of ligaments are related to the growth of age and the aging of the body.

Bed rest plays an important role in relaxing the neck muscles, reducing the pressure of muscle spasm and head weight on the intervertebral disc, and the regression of tissue pressure edema. But the time of lying in bed should not be too long, in order to avoid muscle atrophy, tissue adhesion, joint adhesion and other changes, hinder the recovery of cervical spondylosis.

Third: cervical spondylosis itself is a degenerative disease, but also to protect the neck, try to avoid unnecessary damage. Whether it's sleep, rest, study and work, or even some daily movements, we should keep good habits and never forget the protection of cervical spine. At the same time, strengthen the neck muscle exercise.
