Can Hyperextisive Ligament Cause Severe Pain In The Joints?
I have dealt with joint issues all my life. I am 33 and have been dealing with hyperextisive ligaments my whole life. From bursitis, tendonitis, and at one point i thought i had carpal tunnel syndrome. I was tested by a neurologist and he told me it wasn t my nerves but they were irritated. And he told me about being hyperextinsive. Now the pain is too much and i want to know if there is a way to fix this problem?

Hello,
It might be a collagen vascular disease where the collagen made structure like ligament and tendon are hyper-mobile and cause symptoms. Unfortunately the condition is quite difficult to treat. Only symptomatic treatment is offered. As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. Consult an orthopedic for expert opinion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
