KickAS.org

The KickAS.org is an Internet site created, supported and administered by sufferers of ankylosing spondylitis. Ankylosing spondylitis is a progressive inflammatory disease that typically becomes evident during early to mid adulthood. The disease is characterized by inflammation (arthritis), stiffness, and pain of various joints of the spine and potential loss of spinal mobility. The most common symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis include back pain and abnormal postures in response to the inflamed (arthritic) vertebrae in the spine. KickAs.org strives to provide the means for ankylosing spondylitis sufferers worldwide to share with, and learn from, the experiences of others coping with ankylosing spondylitis and related conditions in a safe and supportive environment.
