Ankylosing spondylitis
Hi Doctor,
I am finding a guy for marriage for my daughter. The man we found is suffering from Ankylosing Spondylitis. Can you please tell if this disease should be a big concern because Google search shows a lot of varying articles on this.
Please let me know if this should be a big concern for her future with him.
If this disease can be cured/controlled easily?
If this disease progresses or worsens with age?
Is this a serious illness?
I don't want to say no to that person because of this issue. But I need to think about my daughter as well at the same time being a mother. I should be aware of how serious this could be and how to be prepared if I get her married to him.
Thank you :)

Ankylosing spondylitis can be a very crippling disease when in full form. But it may stop at any stage of its progression.
There is no definitive medicine to cure it.
