More than half a million Canadians live with SpA—making it more common than rheumatoid arthritis, MS, and ALS combined. Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of inflammatory diseases that includes axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), enteropathic arthritis, reactive arthritis, and juvenile spondyloarthritis. These conditions can cause pain, stiffness, and inflammation in the spine, joints, and entheses, and may also affect the skin, eyes, and gut. While each type has unique features, they share common patterns of inflammation and often begin in young adulthood. Early diagnosis and proper treatment can slow progression, reduce pain, and improve quality of life. Raising awareness is key; join us in advocating for better access to care and treatment!
