Ankylosing Spondylitis

Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic disorder that causes inflammation of the joints and bones of the spine. The disorder can also cause inflammation of the tendons that attach the spine to the pelvis, as well as of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the spine. Over time, the inflammation can lead to new bone formation and the eventual fusion of the spine. This can cause the spine to become rigid and inflexible.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis may affect the entire body, but it most commonly affects the joints of the hands, feet, wrists, and elbows. The condition causes the tissue that lines the joints to thicken, which can eventually lead to joint deformity and loss of function. In rheumatoid arthritis, the body’s immune system attacks its own tissue, including joints. In severe cases, it attacks internal organs.
