We welcome Sean Ewart and Manny Caro from the Spondylitis Association of America to provide an overview of Spondyloarthritis (SpA), a family of closely related inflammatory diseases that affect millions worldwide yet remain significantly under-recognised and diagnosed. Despite affecting more people than rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and ALS combined, SpA struggles with awareness.

The primary disease in this family is ankylosing spondylitis (AS), also known as axial spondyloarthritis. This condition primarily affects the spine but can impact other joints throughout the body. Primary symptoms include inflammatory back pain, stiffness, reduced flexibility, fatigue, and sometimes spinal fusion.

If you are experiencing any issues discussed in this podcast, please get in touch with your healthcare practitioner.
