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.

Hello,

I see you are asking "What is hypermobility syndrome?"

Joint hypermobility syndrome is when you have very flexible joints and it causes you pain (you may think of yourself as being double-jointed). It usually affects children and young people and often gets better as you get older.For more information, you can visit this URL -

What is the link with toes and ehlers danlos?

With Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, especially the hypermobility type, your toes, as with most other joints, can be extremely flexible. They can usually be bent back to the top of the foot and are usually very easily dislocated. This is due to the laxity of the ligaments. This can be very painful.
