Upper Extremity Presentation in HSD/EDS
Tracking # 20-1103006
Course overview
A patient with HSD/EDS commonly experiences pathologies developing in the upper extremity due to laxity combined with functional use. Laxity, subluxations, and dislocations can be more common in those with HSD/EDS, and increased use of the hypermobile upper extremities can lead to overuse injuries. Finding the appropriate individualized support and therapeutic strategies for upper extremity issues in HSD/EDS can not only improve function and pain, but quality of life as well.
