Is sitting for a long time bad for ankylosing arthritis?

Ankylosing spondylitis is generally referred to as ankylosing spondylitis. In general, prolonged sedentary time may have an impact on the health of people with ankylosing spondylitis.

If you sit still in one position for a long time, it may lead to aggravation of uncomfortable symptoms such as local muscle stiffness and poor blood circulation, which is not conducive to the recovery of the disease. In daily life, patients are advised to avoid sitting for long periods of time, and can do appropriate exercises, such as jogging, swimming, etc., which can help promote the body's blood circulation and alleviate the above conditions.

However, if the patient suffers from ankylosing spondylitis and also has lumbar disc herniation, it is necessary to avoid sitting for a long time to avoid further development of the disease and symptoms such as numbness and pain in the lower limbs. At this time, patients can be treated with drugs such as celecoxib capsules and diclofenac sodium sustained-release tablets under the guidance of doctors, or they can be improved by traction therapy.

In addition, it is recommended that patients pay attention to a light diet, eat more fruits and vegetables rich in dietary fiber, such as apples, tomatoes, etc., and can also eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, such as eggs, milk, etc., which can supplement the nutrients needed by the body. If there is obvious discomfort during the period, it is necessary to seek medical attention in time to avoid delaying the condition.
