How to surgically treat ankylosing spondylitis with kyphosis

Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammation of the spine with a clear genetic tendency. Most patients will experience dull pain in the lumbar region in the early stages of the disease, especially at night, when the pain symptoms are more obvious. If not curbed, the disease will have adverse effects on the lumbar spine, thoracic spine, cervical spine and other parts. For example, scoliosis is a typical complication of ankylosing spondylitis, which will affect the patient's normal walking, so treatment measures should be taken as soon as possible. So, how to surgically treat ankylosing spondylitis with scoliotic kyphosis?

Ankylosing spondylitis with kyphoscoliosis indicates that the condition is more serious and requires surgical correction. If kyphoscoliosis affects the field of vision and normal walking, it is recommended to perform multi-segment correction of the affected part. Many patients have more serious conditions and may need correction from multiple nodes such as the cervical spine, lumbar spine, and thoracic spine. After surgery, patients often resume normal walking in a short period of time, but still need to perform rehabilitation exercises accompanied by medical staff to avoid secondary damage to the spine.

There is no complete cure for ankylosing spondylitis, but if you actively treat it and do a good job of daily care, it usually does not affect the life span. You should pay attention to your eating habits, eat more light and easily digestible food, and never hold your urine to avoid urinary tract infection causing spondylitis. When sleeping and resting, you should choose a hard bed so that it will not put too much pressure on the spine. Although ankylosing spondylitis has a serious impact on the patient's life, you should still maintain an optimistic attitude and eliminate negative emotions.

Ankylosing spondylitis with scoliosis is more serious and even affects the patient's normal walking. For this problem, surgical treatment is the best solution, which can enable patients to regain their ability to take care of themselves as soon as possible. In addition to treatment, daily care is particularly important for patients with ankylosing spondylitis and can effectively prevent the disease from worsening. Patients should properly understand relevant knowledge and strengthen self-protection.
