Helping People Suffering from Ankylosing Spondylitis

What is Ankylosing Spondylitis?

A type of musculoskeletal disorder, ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic, painful and degenerative inflammatory rheumatic arthritis that can affect your sacroiliac joints in your back. This extremely serious disease can eventually lead to the complete fusion of the spine. People inflicted with this spinal disease have a genetic predisposition to this incurable medical condition; they will find it harder to work as the disease progresses.

At the law office of Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates, our attorneys represent people in Social Security claims from our five office locations in northern Illinois — including in Chicago.

How to Present Your Claim Successfully

To handle your Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claim successfully, the key is obtaining adequate evidence demonstrating your disability. Working with a general practitioner is not usually sufficient; we encourage you to seek the treatment of a neurologist, orthopedist or chronic pain doctor.

The focus of your SSDI and SSI claim will be on obtaining and receiving the expertise of an experienced medical professional. Your claim will depend largely upon your ability to communicate the symptoms associated with ankylosing spondylitis to your doctor and the Social Security Administration.
