People with hEDS may have: joint hypermobility. loose, unstable joints that dislocate easily. joint pain and clicking joints. The hypermobile type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) is likely the most common hereditary disorder of connective tissue. It has been described largely in those with musculoskeletal complaints including joint hypermobility, joint subluxations/dislocations, as well as skin and soft tissue manifestations.
The term “Flare” in hEDS and HSD is typically used by patients in reference to an increase in symptoms related to any aspect of the syndrome; pain, GI distress, MCAS reactions, dislocations, subluxations, cardiovascular challenges, dysautonomia symptoms, insomnia, fatigue, brain fog, a sense of being “wiggly”
