Dr. Ki-Hon Lin answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Possibly: People with joint hypermobility can indeed have frequent and/or chronic associated pain. Strengthening exercises, avoidance of aggravating positions and activities, and occasional use of nsaids can help. Often, symptoms will improve as a younger patient grows into adulthood.
