Joints with a wider range of motion than people without hyperbility syndrome. Due to extra collegen (connective tissue) protein in one's joints, tendons, ligaments. Difference between hypermobility and hypermobility syndrome is latter can include persistent moderate to severe pain due to osteoarthritis and/or fibromyalgia. Sometimes a mitral valve prolapse is found too.

What is the scientific name for double joint?
The term "double joint" is a misnomer. There is no such medical condition as having double joints. It likely refers to having hypermobility in the joints, a condition known as joint hypermobility syndrome.
Is hypermobility a lifelong condition?
Yes, hypermobility is often a lifelong condition. While some individuals may experience changes in their joint laxity over time, the underlying tendency for hypermobility tends to persist into adulthood. Management strategies such as physical therapy and strength training can help improve symptoms and reduce the impact of hypermobility on daily life.
What is the Marfan Syndrone?
Marfan Syndrome is a genetic condition which affects the body's connective tissue. It usually results in long, thin digits and the condition can also affect the heart, skin, joints, eyes and other systems.
Why can some people dislocate or separate their sholders on will?
It is possible that they may have a connective tissue disorder such as Ehlers-danlos syndrome or Marfan syndrome. People with such disorders have issues with collagen production which can lead to hyperelastic ligaments and loose joints. Subluxations and dislocations are a hallmark of these disorders.
What are alternative names for Patau syndrome?
Patau's Syndrome Trisomy 13 Syndrome Trisomy D Syndrome Trisomie 13 Trisomee Trisome Trisomic Chromosomal Abnormalities, Chromosome Anomalies, Disorder Fetal Aneuploidy
How is Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome divided?
classical, hypermobility, vascular, kyphoscoliosis, arthrochalasia, and dermatosparaxis
Can hypermobility be inherited?
Yes, hypermobility can be inherited. It often runs in families due to genetic factors that affect connective tissue and joint laxity. Conditions like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which includes hypermobility as a characteristic, have a clear genetic basis, indicating that hypermobility can be passed down through generations. However, the exact inheritance patterns can vary among individuals.
What is difference between EDS and ERS?
EDS (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome) is a group of genetic connective tissue disorders that affect the skin, joints, and blood vessels, leading to hypermobility and tissue fragility. ERS (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome hypermobility type) is a subtype of EDS that specifically manifests with joint hypermobility and related symptoms without significant skin or tissue involvement.
Does anyone out there also have hypermobility joint syndrome?
My 23 year old daughter does. I hope yours doesn't hurt.
What is the scientific name for double joint?
The term "double joint" is a misnomer. There is no such medical condition as having double joints. It likely refers to having hypermobility in the joints, a condition known as joint hypermobility syndrome.
What is the condition which allows the human thumb to move in two directions?
Double-jointedness, or to be more accurate, hypermobility syndrome, makes the thumb more flexible.
Is hypermobility dominant or recessive?
Hypermobility is typically considered a dominant trait, which means that it only requires one copy of the gene associated with hypermobility to be expressed. However, there can be variations in the inheritance pattern depending on the specific underlying genetic cause of hypermobility.
What is the pathology of ehlers-danlos syndrome?
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a group of connective tissue disorders characterized by defects in collagen synthesis and structure. This results in hypermobility of joints, skin elasticity, and tissue fragility. It is typically caused by mutations in genes involved in collagen production.
Is hypermobility a superpower?
Yes
What is hypermobility?
Hypermobility is when your joints extend further than they are supposed to and it can cause sever chronic(non-stop) pain.
What is it called if your kneecaps move around too much?
Patellar hypermobility means excessive movement of the kneecap. In a related condition, patellofemoral syndrome, the patella moves in inappropriate ways relative to the femur.
Is marfan syndrome pyshical or mental?
Marfan syndrome primarily affects the physical aspect of a person's health. It is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the connective tissue in the body, leading to physical symptoms such as long limbs, joint hypermobility, and heart problems. There is no evidence to suggest that Marfan syndrome directly affects mental health.
