Causes of Spondyloarthritis
Spondyloarthritis usually shows up in people who have family members with the disease. So far, researchers think that around 30 genes might play a role in Spondyloarthritis. Whatever the case may be, having a family member with the condition does increase your risk of developing it. If you have Spondyloarthritis, environmental factors may also play a role in triggering or worsening flares.
Symptoms of Spondyloarthritis
Spondyloarthritis is a type of arthritis that primarily affects the spine but can also lead to painful inflammation in the joints of the arms and legs. In some cases, it may also involve other body systems like the skin, intestines, or eyes. The key symptom that most patients experience is low back pain. Other common symptoms include fatigue, stiffness, and joint pain.
