A member asked:
If i have hypermobility syndrome and have a lot of pain, but i don't want to keep taking pain medication, what can i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a rheumatologist: A good rheumatologist might come up with a treatment plan that would minimize the amount of pain medication that you take. Hypermobility can occur with a variety of rheumatological conditions and you should see a rheumatologist to make sure that you have a correct underlying diagnosis.
