A member asked:
What can i do to prevent hyperextension of my knees and elbows?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ligamentous laxity: Is a common congenital condition that permits one to hyperextend joints and makes one "double-jointed". There is no need to worry about that when it occurs naturally. However, traumatic hyperextension injury is quite injurious. A knee brace when highly active or elbow protector can help.
