What are the best treatments for Ankylosing Spondylitis?
See the best treatments for Ankylosing Spondylitis here
For myself, the best treatment is to stay active, get my remicade infusions on time and don't overdo anything.

Since there is no cure for AS, some medications help to ease the symptoms (like biologics and Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDs, see http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/ankylosing-spondylitis/diagnosis-treatment/treatment/txc-20261171), but in a lot of cases other treatments help great deal, too: physical therapy, food supplements (natural anti-inflammatory pills like curcumin or boswellia; omega 3; vitamin D3; etc.), anti-inflammatory diets (low to no starch, gluten, sugar; more protein & fermented food). A lot of movement and meditation goes a long way, too. Mind you, these natural, less invasive treatments are not a cure for the disease, they ease the symptoms and are only efficient in the long run!

To begin with Physical therapy and occupational therapy is great. Water therapy was the best of them all. It helps with mobility and strengthening. Accupunctire and massage works well for some too and light exercise and yoga. Movement is the key to AS . when all other treatments fails there are medications such as biologics, Methotrexate, Plaquinel, Sulfanazine, pain meds and some antidepressants that help to relieve pain as well as slow the progression of the disease. There is no cure but more treatment options are becoming available.

I am kind of one who does not like many rx drugs, refused a biologic, went on plaquinil and low dose naltrexone at my request, I am doing pretty good. I used to use Norco, and no longer need it!

Well I am no one to really answer this and the studies are evolving daily thankfully.
But it is known that some treatment help but the efficiency may vary on people.
List of some treatment known to help AS condition:
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)
TNF Inhibtors
Corticosteroids (temporary relief on zone injected)
Methotrexate (at a much smaller dose than for cancer)
And not to be forgotten that all guidelines recommend that beside treatment exercice is a key!
(range of motion, flexibility, cardio, etc.)

Injectable TNF Inhibitors have worked best for me and most others, sometimes coupled with methotrexate, a chemo theraputic drug, corticosteroids, nsaids, or minocycline. Also, staying active. Water activities, walking and yoga are best. Physically therapy and massage therapy also help.
