Answers:
AS is a progressive disease.

"No cure is known for AS, although treatments and medications are available to reduce symptoms and pain."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankylosing_spondylitis

"The severity of AS varies greatly from person to person, and not everyone will experience the most serious complications or have spinal fusion. Some will experience only intermittent back pain and discomfort, but others will experience severe pain and stiffness over multiple areas of the body for long periods of time. AS can be very debilitating, and in some cases, lead to disability.

Almost all cases of AS are characterized by acute, painful episodes (also known as "flares") followed by temporary periods of remission where symptoms subside."
