Suggest Treatment For Spondylitis

Hi... i am 23 years old and i am suffering from spondylitis.. recently i had immense shoulder pain and neck stiffness due to bad sleeping pattern. The pain continued for 1 week...now sometimes but my head spins maybe for a few seconds but it does spin. I think my spondylitis has increased...i also take two pillows while sleeping and carry heavy bags...maybe due to that reason... Can you please recommend me some excersise? Should i resort to physiotherapy for this.

Hello dear
Welcome to Health care magic family .
I have evaluated your concern in depth .

@ Your spondylitis is in relation with posture and load bearing
@ Suggestions for better outcome
# Sleep with single pillow of moderate thickness taking utmost care of not
to get excess flexion of the nape of neck region
# Weight bearing must be very precise , taking into consideration angles
of the back , amount of weight beyond pain threshold is not advisable
at all , try to manage it in fractions so that more pressure at a time is
avoided
# Better to consult physiotherapist for assisted techniques of exercises
for 5-7 days period , then perform them all at home
# Local analgesic spray with analgesic tablet 12 hourly till condition settles

Hope this will help you .

Thanks for evaluation of my answer .
