Shoulder Pain?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else have shoulder pain? It started a week ago.
I don’t remember doing anything that hurt it.
I can move it and use it but sometimes I get an awful pain. My arm also feels weaker than usual and shaky.
I know AS can affect the shoulder but not sure how common or what the symptoms are like.

Thanks
