Spondylitis refers to a group of inflammatory conditions affecting the spine, most commonly ankylosing spondylitis. It can cause chronic back pain, stiffness, and reduced flexibility, particularly in the lower back. Symptoms often worsen with rest and improve with activity.

Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Early diagnosis is important to prevent progression and maintain spinal mobility.

Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and preserving function. This may include medications, physical therapy, and exercise programs. Treatment is individualized for each patient.

Long-term management includes maintaining an active lifestyle and regular monitoring. Patients are encouraged to follow exercise routines and adhere to treatment plans. With proper care, mobility and quality of life can be preserved.
