Which are the best exercises for ankylosing spondilysis?


Answer:
Hi Priya p. Only with the help of your doctor you can determine if you have ankylosing spondylitis and the best exercises for you. He or she will perform a series of tests that often include x-rays, a monitoring of your symptoms and a physical exam. Through these things, your doctor will be able to determine what is affecting you as well as the degree and the possible treatment for it. The symptoms of this form of arthritis are quite unique. One of them is the fusion of your vertebrae. What happens is as simple as your body doing too much to help itself. As with arthritis, an inflammation starts, it causes your body to trigger a healing device. In this case, it thinks that you need to heal your bones and therefore begins to stimulate bone growth. The problem with that is that the bony growth is actually fusing the two vertebrae together which leads you to additional problems. Your doctor most likely will recommend a strengthening exercises to strengthen the back and abs . Strong muscles help support the spine, absorbing shock before it reaches the joints of the spine. Stretching exercises can decrease stiffness and ease back pain.Will recommend a low-impact aerobics such as walking, swimming, or using an exercise bike or elliptical trainer increase circulation and decrease stiffness without placing undue stress on the spinal joints. Aerobics also help in keeping one鈥檚 weight down. Keeping weight under control helps as excess weight causes extra stress on the joints.
Also will recommend a Warm Water Exercises: Water supports the majority of body weight, taking stress off the joints. Exercising in warm water has extra benefits - warm water increases circulation, eases pain and loosens up stiff muscles and joints, which make exercises easier to perform. Many public swimming pools offer exercise classes for those with ankylosing spondilysis.Consult your physician before starting an exercise program.

Pilates. It will strengthen you back muscles, give you core strength and stability and realign your posture. However, if you have not been exercising then you are in for a uphill struggle.
make sure you put every joint of your body through its full range of movement. even if you are sick due to fever or other cause, continue exercises. deep breathing exercises are also a must, to prevent constriction of the chest muscles.
Yoga:
Halasana (Plough pose): Lie flat on your back with legs and feet together, arms by your side with fists closed near your thigh keeping your legs straight, slowly raise them to angles of 30 degree, 60 degree, and 90 degree, pausing slightly at each point. Gradually, raise your legs above your head without bending your knees and then move them behind until they touch the floor. Stretch your legs as far as possible so that your chin presses tightly against the chest while your arms remain on the floor as in the original position. Hold the pose from between 10 seconds to three minutes, breathing normally. To return to the starting position slowly reverse the procedure.This asana relieves tension in the back, neck, and legs and is beneficial in the treatment of lumbago, spinal rigidity and rheumatism, myalgia, arthritis, sciatica, and asthma.Hope this helps, Good Luck.
