A member asked:
What md would i see for possible hypermobility in joints? a rheumatologist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thats OK: Rheumatology focuses on the diagnosis and therapy of rheumatic diseases. Hypermobility of joints may have underlying causes which are not medical such as family history or even yoga. A Rheumatologist is certainly qualified to help check this out for you. It may also help to consult with an Orthopaedic surgeon to rule out any underlying correctable causes of this condition.
