I appreciate people sheding light on ankylosing spondylitis I have lived with it for 20 years almost and every day is hard but staying active and taking ibuprofen and good diet have done more good than anything else
If you have access to a specialist maybe ask about better medicine. I take an injection now that made my symptoms disappear. I was 90% house bound and now 100% have my life back.
Thank you B & B. I was diagnosed with spondyloarthritis 2 years ago, couldn't afford the medication (Enbrel) and now it has progressed so that my spine/facet joints/ribs are fusing. In a different country now and getting a prescription for Humira and never thought I would be happy taking a medication. Was an athlete and so I know how to push myself but ever since I had two brain surgeries five years ago, I have had a cascade of health challenges, including this diagnosis. But watching your videos on what I can do on my own is going to be helpful (and perhaps hopeful).
Are you sure ribs are fusing. I had rib pain for years but not it’s not a problem. Probably caused by my job. I noticed any joined I used a lot had problems.
Thank you for your response. Yes, the scabs show analysing in two vertebrae and facet joints where they meet the ribs. But the pain where it is more burning and gnawing than aching is further out in the ribs, and it is this that stumps the doctors.
Thank you so much for this information! I just used your link to buy this off Amazon. My husband has suffered with Ankylosing Spondylitis for 30+years. I'm excited for him to try this device and hopefully find some relief. I want to use it for my constant upper back pain I've had all my life. Also, just watched one of your videos about Achilles pain and I'm so thrilled to have found the reason my heel hurts all the time. I thought maybe it was planter fasciitis, but that part of my foot doesn't bother me. When I saw you explain the achilles massage, I started doing that and WOW! So much relief! You two are such a blessing to all of us. I've love your humor, and I'm so grateful for all the help I receive by watching your channel. You guys are great!
I was diagnosed in my 40s with AS and now I am in my 60s. I tried pt, stretching, heat, massage,dry needling, tens unit and epidurals. Look forward to trying this device. Both my husband and I are using suggestions for Achilles Tendons. It is very helpful.
@@BobandBrad Now if we could doctors to diagnose SA sooner. I'm pushing 60 and had SA for decades. Took doctors almost 15 years for me. The end of this nightmare couldn't get here soon enough.
Bob and Brad, the old bamboo spine reference is due to the bone spurs that frequently form at the ends of the vertebrae and eventually fuse together reminiscent of the enlarged junctions along a bamboo pole. Wish my doctor had taken the bone spurs more seriously when they first started forming. Even with my mom having had AS he said there was no way at my age that I could be developing it and refused to even do an HLA-b27 blood test. He was wrong.
@@SaraHessXXIV I am suffering from AS since 2008..I do regular yoga and some breathing exercises...and take homeopathy medicine....I am not totally okay but can do my duties smoothly.....winter time I have to keep my self warm... I avoid taking painkillers and steroids.
@@saifulaliahmed9877 I've had AS for 10 years and am managing on painkillers when needed and being on a low salicylate and oxalate diet and low inflammatory foods. I'm managing not too bad as I also have inflammatory arthritis and osteoarthritis in peripheral joints like hands and feet and am trying to reduce pain and swelling in my feet at the moment. My Rheumatologist would like me to take anti TNF drugs but I'm unsure as I'm not in great pain especially my back has been quite good and the side effects to these drugs are quite alarming. Have you tried anti TNF drugs?
It's terrible when doctors don't take you seriously. My pain started when I was 14. Doctors always said I was "over doing it" and take ibuprofen/Tylenol etc. After over a decade of constant pain I got diagnosed with AS when I was 28. Still pain but far more manageable now that I know what I'm dealing with.
This came at a good time. I find out next week if I could possibly have this since my 2 yr diagnosis of RA was thrown out. It’s so bad in my spine all the way up
Used to wake up on my back with my knees up and arms stretched overhead. After a SEVERE fibro flare (in 1983, the one that got me diagnosed and declared disabled) I couldn't straighten or lift my arms above shoulder level for about six years and my back really suffered. Downhill ever since. If I listed the proper names for my maladies we'd be there all day. Fibromyalgia, the curse that keeps on giving. I have a head-to-toe well-dressed-witchy look ready to go for our trick or treaters but been feeling so crummy don't think I'll even be the one going to the door. Fibro wrecks a lot of plans.
I think this is what I've got, if I wake up on my Back it's Agony until I've been up about an Hour and the Pain is in my Hip sometimes. It's right across the top of my Pelvis and I said to someone it's as if my Pelvis wants to Separate itself from my Back. I'm 53 and it's Horrible and only started After using an Inversion Table a few time's, which I have now Sold. Resistance Band Exercises and my Acupressure Mat are Helping in Fact Acupressure Mat's are Amazing for Reducing Pain Instantly I think because they get your Blood Flowing xxx
I have this in the bottom of my bad and have such horrible days during the winter with the cold. I use a water bottle every day morning to night to try and get rid of some pain. It’s mainly the lower bottom of my back feels like someone is pulling my spine through my stomach 24/7 I’ have had this for 7 years now I’m only 28 now
I am hoping my comment may help others suffering from a condition called Achalasia. I suspect the back pod could be useful in alleviating this condition. I have had two pyloric sphincter stretches and eventually surgery to remove half the muscle. I was told that was all that could be done. I have a variant that causes 'extremely' painful spasms so intense it stimulates vomiting and of course the sphincter is contracted so it feels like I'm being torn apart. I started having an attack one day just as I was getting an adjustment at my chiropractor and when he adjusted my thoracic vertebrae it went away immediately. My husband has learned to rub very firmly on each side of my vertebrae when this happens at home and between this and the chiropractic adjustments I have been able to manage the swallowing issues and the spasms. I think the pad would do wonders for keeping the vertebra in line to give relief and control. I truly hope this will help someone with this horrible condition.
From my experience the best solution leading to full remission is changing your diet to animal-based: meat, eggs, fish + kinds of fruits and veggies you can tolerate (you can define it mostly by whether it gives you gut irritation and pain in your body or not)
for most, animal diets are inflammatory and not recommended. But your success shows that every body is different and if one diet doesn't work, another may be worth trying, even if counterintuitive.
My husband too has recently been diagnosed with AS. Doctors have suggested biologics but they are quite expensive. Is that the only solution or is there an alternative?
Biologics are by far the best option available rn. I was barely walking because of all the pain for almost a year before I started humira. The results were almost instantaneous for me but I was told it could take up to a month. My pain went down by 60 percent in the first week and I currently have little to no pain. They have special programs in place to cover up a major part of the cost depending on your income. I wish your husband a pain free life.
it is still largely considered a male disease, but among some American indigenous tribes, such as Choctaw, the rate is the same for women and men. One hypothesis for the disparity is that men complain of back pain first and so get AS diagnosis, where as women complain of hip pain first and get diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis. Both are Spondiloarthritis.
Hi, I also have it advanced. I found out my diagnosis after my lumbar spine fused. I’m tipped forward. They have other videos on AS type in “Bob and Brad Ankylosing Spondylitis” on UA-cam search.

Recently I experience mid back and low back pain that wakes me up. This past weekend I couldn’t bend forward or stand for too long. I was in agony😢 I am on my second mattress with no relief. I just wish I could sleep
So sorry to read this. I just finished trying 5 mattresses (!), accepted it wasn't them, and started taking Tylenol in the middle of the night to help me sleep till morning. How is it going for you, 6 months on?
@@Paul-cy9ej Hey! My pain went away suddenly and returned 3-4 weeks ago. It was awful since my mid back and right hip would get stiff and go into spasm while lying in bed. I took the plunge and ordered a two inch firm mattress topper. It's day two and It's so comfy! I haven't slept this good in a year! The brand is sleep on latex in case you want to check it out. I have thirty days to decide giving myself 10 days. Fingers crossed...how are you doing?
Hi Bob and Brad first thank you for share i have a question, I have AS Too, can i do planks , i always wonder about that , is it bad or good for me doing plank ?
I have AS but it’s too painful to lay on my back - specifically my SI joint is very inflamed and tender to touch - any pressure is extremely painful. Do you think this would still be effective standing up and placing the backpod between my body and a wall?
Dear Bob & Brad, I wish that we all had a big empty room that we could just roll around in. Babies roll and stretch all the time. Us mature babies need that too. Any suggestions?
I’m new and I’m 39 and due to being ignored for so long I have serious progression skeletal severe bone on bone si joint dysfunction and more but watching I found a river rock and it’s shaped like that on one side and a knot buster on other I have been unknowingly doing similar to try and get relief but I can completely relax my weight on the stone and fall asleep and it still feels like it’s not hard enough but I had others try it and they scream and are blown away that I can do that and want it deeper lol
Amazing as always...but sit down bob...its 👍 👌 take a load off! I have the chirp wheels and they are similar to this!! Im absolutely addicted! I recently got an occipital hold device created by a chiro...simple..yet..HEAveN! I share your videos as homework to my future clients!🥰😍they have all looked loved em😊🤩 so helpful thank you guys!
Good people have been with this disease for 3 years and I can say that it is a disaster, I ate what I wanted, not all organisms are the same and I can tolerate something, plus I have a very serious problem with gluten.
Yes i am on remicade at first I would get cold and flu symptoms.sore throat. I got of remicade because I was getting to sick. But once i stop the remicade I instantly regretted it all my joints swelled up. But as long as you wear a mask and act as if covid is still active to minimize the symptoms. I would rather feel cold symptoms than my joints swelling up. For 20 years, drs would tell me it's in your head. 3 years ago diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis HLA-B27 positive. So those drs biase treatment that told me it was 8n my head. I can just imagine all the other patients
The thoracic area is where mine is at. 5-6 disc already fused together. Rounding for sure. Putting pressure on my chest area and it hurts. Trying to find someone to help me in Ky. Been years fighting this and nobody believes me 😢 even with the damn ct scan showing it
Carnivore life from korea! I have DISH and started Carnivore and for some reason the pain i was feeling is kinda going alway! Hope this helps with people that have DISH
Ur all the videos are very helpful evading of pain. Despite very big fan yours, I skip your videos intentionally because I am not comfortable with pronounciation. Pls do something
Here is a statement from Bob: "Some of our astute followers have noticed me slurring my words. I am not drunk but working with Brad it would be justifiable. I had 6 infected cysts removed from my mouth (noncancerous) and I have residual scar tissue and numbness. I will try to do better. Thanks Bob." Thank you for your understanding.
@@BobandBrad thanks for reply Actually I am not convenient with the pronounciation of both of you. I want to watch your videos dyingly but unable to focus due to pronounciation not understand by me, it is only my fault, most of the foreigner's pronounciation is not understandable so I was requesting to do something technically (text in screen, whatever you are speaking or any other way) so that everyone could be benefited
We know that if your body isn't used to good posture and is fighting against it, it can get very tiresome. Just do the best you can as much as you can and hopefully it will get better and better
I looked up Costochondritis and it appears to be the same as Ankylosing Spondylitis unlike what Brad said it being completely different diagnosis though I could be wrong
A whole food plant-based diet is your best weapon against Ankylosing Spondylitis and any other autoimmune disease, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis. Think anti-inflammatory.

hi I was unsubscribed from you?
Ur all the videos are very helpful evading of pain. Despite very big fan yours, I skip your videos intentionally because I am not comfortable with pronounciation. Pls do something
Here is a statement from Bob: "Some of our astute followers have noticed me slurring my words. I am not drunk but working with Brad it would be justifiable. I had 6 infected cysts removed from my mouth (noncancerous) and I have residual scar tissue and numbness. I will try to do better. Thanks Bob."
Thank you for your understanding.
@@BobandBrad thanks for reply
Actually I am not convenient with the pronounciation of both of you. I want to watch your videos dyingly but unable to focus due to pronounciation not understand by me, it is only my fault, most of the foreigner's pronounciation is not understandable so I was requesting to do something technically (text in screen, whatever you are speaking or any other way) so that everyone could be benefited
@@BobandBrad Glad to know the cysts were non cancerous, that you are healing, and thank you both for continuing to post excellent content. Be well.
@@ramangarg2826 I can add captions to videos made by non-English speakers. Do you have that option?
@@dale3404 no, pls guide in brief
When it attacks your eyes you will know all about it
The Backpod is insanely expensive
Sorry !
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Holding that posture for me gets very tiresome. I also have Fibromyalgia with it. I can hear and feel my spine being sponge 🧽
We know that if your body isn't used to good posture and is fighting against it, it can get very tiresome. Just do the best you can as much as you can and hopefully it will get better and better
👍
Sorry I don't get the idea of people talking over each other
I looked up Costochondritis and it appears to be the same as Ankylosing Spondylitis unlike what Brad said it being completely different diagnosis though I could be wrong
Its part of the illness. I was diagnosed at 29. I'm now 52. It's so bad at the moment. 😢
A whole food plant-based diet is your best weapon against Ankylosing Spondylitis and any other autoimmune disease, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis. Think anti-inflammatory.
FODMAPs or AIP!
100% untrue due to plants containing lectins, oxalates and phytic acid which cause huge inflammation.
And if you don’t want your kids to develop an inflammatory disease, don’t vaccinate them
Bob’s high
He had tumors removed from his mouth that is why he is talking odd.
