Ankylosing Spondylitis and Tendonitis
|

Can you explain how AS and tendonitis go together. I have just been diagnosed with AS and the Dr. said it also explains my wrist tendon and shoulder tendon problems. |

One of the characteristics of anklylosing spondilitis is inflammation where tendons attach to the bone. This is a condition called enthesitis. Enthesitis can be painful, especially when it involves tendons in areas frequently used, like the achilles tendon that attaches at the back of the heel. |
