The Norris lab is hosting a hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) summer research internship program on the campus of the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC).Those who are interested should look at the attached photos for eligibility requirements and description (1/3)
Too many people with ehlers danlos and joint hypermobility see chiropractors without realizing the dangers in it
Contraindications to spinal manipulative therapy according to @WHO
- basilar invagination of the upper cervical spine
- chiari malformation
- congenital, generalized Hypermobility
- signs or patterns of instability
- syringomyelia
Another paper confirming what we already know: systemic manifestations including autonomic dysfunction, mast cells activation syndrome, migraine and GI symptoms are fairly common in EDS patients❗️
(TMJ is also mentioned as “extra musculoskeletal manifestation”)
Joint pain was seen in 100% of patients. When will more doctors start taking EDS seriously as a chronic pain condition?
