What types of treatment are available to help with back problems due to hypermobility (double-jointed)?
Since I was about 14, I have suffered from serious back problems. When I was younger I usually blamed by back going out on things falling (I am a clutz) or over-extending my muscles. I have been in a couple of car accidents in the past few years and have thus had my back X-rayed and scan. Although I suffered upper back trauma in my last accident, no problems have shown up with my lower back. After some research, I have come to the conclusion that my back problems must come from the fact that I have hypermobility (im doule-jointed). According to what I have found, when I turn certain ways, certain muscles move and others do not. When this happens my lower back is in exteme pain and I am usually stuck in the bed for several hours. Is there any type of treatment for this problem? Please let me know. Thanks!
