As a person with hypermobility, thank you for acknowledging the pain we experience. Not a day goes by where I'm not hurting somewhere in my body. I'm constantly searching for ways to decrease it, so thank you!
@@Truerealism747 I'm sorry to hear about your pain. ☹️ My main pain at the present is my hip and shoulder. The shoulder may be separated, and the hip might have a torn labrum. Working through PT, orthopedic appts, etc, and take Meloxicam when I need it. Going to try LDN in the next couple weeks. I know my core strength or lack of plays into my overall pain. I didn't chose the chronic pain life, the chronic pain life chose me. Good luck to you.

For seven years I have been dealing with spinal pain, specifically irritation along my spine, but also muscle pain in my para spinal muscles because they’re working so very hard. Even before that, I found static postures would irritate my back muscles since I was a child. It’s only been in the last two years that I’ve really truly come to understand that my flexibility was the cause of my back pain not an indication that my pain was all psychological (as I was told by handful of healthcare providers, including a physiotherapist). The straightforward and simple explanation in this video fits with what I have come have come to understand with the help of my current physiotherapist, who has been amazing and has taught me how to appropriately recruit and relax both my paraspinal muscles and my deep stabilizers.
Excellent, clear and concise explanation and visual. I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and I'm struggling to find anyone in my area of the U.S. who will do a hypermobility assessment, much less one covered by my insurance.
So all my life my back looks like a C no matter how good my posture was I finally convinced them to check and it turns out they say I am hyper mobile just when I do the tests I don’t know if is accurate so will have to get another check up,thank you!
I'm a 64 year old female and have been flexible my whole life. I have Lupus and was just recently diagnosed with Hypermobility Syndrome. I have no idea if all the pain that I experience is from the lupus or Hypermobility Syndrome. Any advice would be appreciated.
I just want to go home and lie down, I havent even done any work at school here 😢 Off-duty PT (my friend's gf) looked at me for a few minutes and told me im hypermobile. Now im researching it... I thought it was normal for my back to hurt every day.
For me it’s mostly my shoulders back hips spine wrists and clavicle. Everyday I wake up in pain in some way especially with the way when I sleep my shoulders naturally go super far towards my chin. I can’t for the life of me get my shoulders comfortable when I sleep…. It sucks
Does this require surgery? I have this as well as facet arthropathy and a herniated disc at L5-S1… I’m a dancer and it came on randomly when I was dancing, it’s got worse and worse and I haven’t danced or even do a regular job because of it 😭 I don’t want surgery
Hi Kasey, please rest assured that hypermobility does not normally require surgery. We highly recommend finding a good physiotherapist, gyrotonics or pilates instructor who is experienced in working with hypermobility to help you stabilize your spine.
My body is now changing its posture to avoid pain..after some time of exercising back pain starts and then slowly posture gets changed...and it's happened unconsciously...
please answer!!! I am in desperate help. I am 17 yo with hypermobile wrists. I have an injury in the wrist from working out. I want to be a plumber for my career, should I throw this career out of the picture???
I sprained my wrist but it recovered fine. You should probably not work out so intensively though, in a way that can injure you like this, especially if you're only 17. I believe this could accelerate you to the point where you end up with chronic joint pain much earlier in life than you could otherwise. Consult a physio who is an expert in hyper-mobility before doing anything more than cardio. Working out any more than is necessary is not worth the lifelong pain, trust me
Tips: 1. Don't have weights that are too heavy 2. Don't bend your wrists when lifting things. Make sure no matter what workout you do, they are in line with your hands
I agree, WTF. I was going to try to search more episodes. Perhaps she too gave up like all other professionals (sad to say but you feel like a revolving door patient)
