Hello Frederick:

Is the nerve damage that AS does only from compression from bone or other inflammation on nerves, or does AS also directly attack the nerves?

I have started developing neurological tingling, stinging and itching in my legs, arms, face and neck; not all at once, they accumulated in the past five months.

May the Force be with you!
Kevin
