Is ankylosing spondylitis hereditary

summary

My working relationship is that I sit in front of the computer all day. Recently, I feel a lot of pain in my cervical spine and the whole back. I went to check and said that this is ankylosing spondylitis. I remember my grandfather had ankylosing spondylitis before. Today, let me talk to you about whether ankylosing spondylitis can be inherited.

Is ankylosing spondylitis hereditary

First, ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease, mainly involving sacroiliac joint, spinal process, paraspinal soft tissue and peripheral joints, and can be accompanied by extraarticular manifestations. The main clinical manifestations are pain in waist, back, neck, buttock, hip and joint swelling and pain. In severe cases, spinal deformity and joint ankylosis may occur. The disease is hereditary.

Second: ankylosing spondylitis is not a genetic disease, but the children born are having this chance. Relatively speaking, boys are more likely to be more likely to be younger. This disease is not directly inherited, but the incidence rate of illness is higher than others.

Third: clinical data: the probability of male as patients passing on to their sons is 12%, and the probability of passing on to their daughters is 5%. Women with as have a 20% chance of passing on their sons and a 15% chance of passing on their daughters. These data indicate that boys have a higher heritability than women.

matters needing attention

Because ankylosing spondylitis genetic probability is very high, so before cure, had better not have a child, so as not to affect the next generation, and sexual life to control, in the activity period had better not have sexual life, control the disease can appropriately increase the number of times.
