Hi Doctor, My brother-in-law has been experiencing severe neck and back pain for the past 15 days. He recently tested HLA-B27 positive and is now unable to lift his hand also due to the pain. Could this be related to the HLA-B27 result? What should be the next steps for diagnosis and treatment?

Recently I have been diagnosed with the impression of sacroilitis in my mri report . My rheumatologist prescribed me saaz 500 thrice a day with etoshine 60 once a day( for two) weeks however after taking medicine I got allergic reactions with sulfasalazine despite the fact my stiffness and pain was better when I was on saaz. Now what medications should I switch to my rheumatologist have said now we can only rely on NSAIDs and if possible on biologics. But I don't want to switch to biologics so early.
