Ankylosing spondylitis ankylosing spondylitis is a cause of back pain in adolescents and young adults. Ankylosing spondylitis is a form of chronic inflammation of the spine and the sacroiliac joints chronic inflammation in these areas causes pain and stiffness in and around the spine, including the neck, middle back, lower back, and buttocks. Over time, chronic inflammation of the spine (spondylitis) can lead to a complete cementing together (fusion) of the vertebrae, a process referred to as ankylosis. Ankylosis causes loss of mobility of the spine. Pt treatment deep breathing for lung expansion and stretching exercises to improve spine and joint mobility. Are also advised to sleep on a firm mattress and avoid the use of a pillow in order to prevent spine curvature. Aerobic exercise is generally encouraged as it promotes full expansion of the breathing muscles and opens the airways of the lungs. Home remedies physical therapy for ankylosing spondylitis includes instructions and exercises to maintain proper posture. This includes deep breathing for lung expansion and stretching exercises to improve spine and joint mobility. Since ankylosis of the spine tends to cause forward curvature (kyphosis), patients are instructed to maintain erect posture as much as possible and to perform back-extension exercises. Patients are also advised to sleep on a firm mattress and avoid the use of a pillow in order to prevent spine curvature. Ankylosing spondylitis can involve the areas where the ribs attach to the upper spine as well as the vertebral joints, thus limiting breathing capacity. Patients are instructed to maximally expand their chest frequently throughout each day to minimize this limitation. Physical therapists customize exercise programs for each individual. Swimming often can be a very beneficial form of exercise, as it avoids jarring impact of the spine. Ankylosing spondylitis need not limit an individual's involvement in athletics. People can participate in carefully chosen aerobic sports when their disease is inactive. Aerobic exercise is generally encouraged as it promotes full expansion of the breathing muscles and opens the airways of the lungs. Cigarette smoking is strongly discouraged in people with ankylosing spondylitis, as it can accelerate lung scarring and seriously aggravate breathing difficulties. Occasionally, those with severe lung disease related to ankylosing spondylitis may require oxygen supplementation and medications to improve breathing. People with ankylosing spondylitis may need to modify their activities of daily living and adjust features of the workplace. For example, workers can adjust chairs and desks for proper postures. Drivers can use wide rearview mirrors and prism glasses to compensate for the limited motion in the spine. You should check with your doctor before using compression socks for your swelling. These special socks should be properly fitted for you and your needs. Also, be sure to wear them during the day and remove them before you go to bed. Leg elevation if you stand a lot during the day, try propping your feet up or soaking them in water when you get home to help prevent swelling. Muscle relaxant: reduces muscle tension and helps relieve muscle pain and discomfort. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (also known as tens) is something which helps ease muscle pain and spasms. You can strengthen the muscles by doing tonificationie. Improving the tone of the muscles by adding either weight cuffs / sand bags which will help you to improve the strength of the muscle.

Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone. Stiffness might have developed due to weakness of the ligaments &inflammed cartilage. Specific knee exercises will also help ie. Keeping ball underneath the knee and keep pressing it. That's the simple exercise which will help you to strengthen the knee.

If you are suffering from burning pain or tingling sensation in hands or feet; sharp shooting pain in legs; numbness in hands or feet, then you might be suffering from neuropathic pain. What is a neuropathic pain? Neuropathic pain is a special type of pain which occurs when there is damage to nerve fibres, which produces tingling or burning type of pain. It is of two types: 1. Peripheral neuropathic pain: it occurs when there is an injury to peripheral nerve fibres (a-delta or c-fibers) which carries pain sensation to the brain (thalamus) for interpretation. 2. Central neuropathic pain: it occurs due to sensitization of central pain interpreting mechanisms (thalamus) to falsely feel pain when peripheral nerve fibres are no longer sending pain impulses to them. Worldwide-estimates of the prevalence of neuropathic pain is 7% i.e. 7 persons out of 100 people are suffering from different types of neuropathic pain. Symptoms: •tingling sensation or feeling of ants crawling under skin •burning sensation •sharp shooting pain or electric current-like sensation •stabbing pain •dull pain with numbness or heaviness reasons for neuropathic pain: •diabetes mellitus: most common cause worldwide due to uncontrolled blood sugar levels, causing damage to nerve fibres. •alcohol consumption/cigarette smoking: damage to nerve fibres or damage to blood vessels supplying nerve fibres. Burning pain in feet •neck pain/low back pain/glutei pain •vit. B12 deficiency •chemotherapy for cancer patients •post-herpes virus infection •post-spine surgery •post-amputation •diseases like spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, hiv, lead toxicity, etc. Special neuropathies: 1. Carpal tunnel syndrome: tingling, burning sensation in hand which occurs due to compression of median nerve in the wrist area. It occurs in women especially due to pregnancy, hypothyroidism, diabetes, etc. And in men due to improper position of the wrist during working on computers. 2. Cervical radiculopathy: pain in neck and shoulder region (which increases with neck movements), along with sharpshooting pain radiating from neck to hand occurs in cases of cervical radiculopathy. This is due to compression of the cervical nerve root by disc prolapse, facet subluxation, muscle spasm, trauma, etc. 3. Lumbar radiculopathy: pain in lower back or glutei region with sharp shooting pain radiating from hip to leg/foot region, occurs in cases of lumbar radiculopathy or sciatica. This is due to compression of lumbar nerve root or sciatic nerve by disc prolapse, facet joint, trauma, hypertrophied ligamentumflavum, piriformis syndrome, etc. 4. Meralgiaparesthetica: tingling or burning sensation in front of the thigh, occurs due to compression of lateral cutaneous nerve of thigh, near waist region. Usual causes are tight or constrictive clothing at waist region, prolonged sitting, protuberant abdomen, etc. Prevention of neuropathy: 1. Avoid alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking. 2. Maintain ideal body weight/bmi (body mass index) 3. Lifestyle changes: daily exercises (>30 minutes per day) or brisk walking or swimming; avoid prolonged sitting or standing (>30 minutes). 4. Food/diet should have following components: •green vegetables e.g. Spinach, fenugreek leaves (methi), radish, etc •coloured vegetables e.g. Tomato, carrot, capsicum (green/red), ladies-finger (bhindi) •milk products e.g. Milk, buttermilk, curd, cheese (paneer) •protein-rich foods e.g. Fish, egg, chicken, pulses (daal) •fibre-rich foods e.g. Bran, oats, brown-rice •fruits e.g. Apple, orange, guava, papaya, pomegranate, berries 5. Blood sugar control (in diabetics) 6. Care of feet: •regular inspection of feet (with mirror) •comfortable, well-fitted shoes •regular consultation with a podiatrist •treatment of wounds, foot deformities 7. Adequate sleep 8. Warm water bath (increases blood flow to the affected area) treatment: •consult pain medicine specialist. •neuropathic painkillers e.g. Amitriptyline, pregabalin, gabapentin, capsaicin, duloxetine, etc. •vit. B12 supplements, anti-oxidants, multi-vitamins. •transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (tens) •acupuncture •relaxation and yoga •neural prolotherapy.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Smoking distorts a patient's immune system and can delay healing, increasing the risk of infection at the wound site. Smoking just one cigarette decreases the body's ability to deliver necessary nutrients for healing after surgery. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.

Hello- the causes of impotence varies. Erections result from a complex combination of brain stimuli, hormonal actions, and blood vessel and nerve functions. Any interference with with these factors can lead to impotence. Other contributing causes of impotency include alcohol, cigarettes, arteriosclerosis, sexually transmitted diseases, high blood pressure, hormonal imbalances (such as low levels of thyroid hormones) or abusive masturbation. In some instances, impotence results from the lack of sexual desire. This cause may be linked to the loss of attraction to a partner, but it can also result from depression, illness or medications. There are over 200 drugs that may cause impotence. Some of the most common are antidepressants, antihistamines, antihypertensives, blood-pressure medication, cancer chemotherapy, diuretics, narcotics, nicotine, sedatives, steroids, stomach acid inhibitors and ulcer medications. Fortunately, it is permanently curable by ayurveda.
