World Axial Spondyloarthritis Day
04. May 2024 – Let’s celebrate World Axial Spondyloarthritis Day!
World Axial Spondiloarthritis (AS) Day is an annual event dedicated to people living with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), a condition that primarily affects the spine and sacroiliac joints.
Celebrated worldwide on the first Saturday of May, its aims are twofold:
- To raise awareness: Axial spondyloarthritis affects millions of people worldwide, yet remains relatively unknown. World AS Day aims to shed light on the condition and highlight its impact on physical and mental health.
- Sharing information: Because axial spondyloarthritis is under-recognised, the day serves as an opportunity to spread knowledge about AxSpA, fostering greater understanding and support.
