Ever met a patient who can bend their thumb back to their wrist or pop their shoulder out on command? In this episode of Joint Effort PAs, we dive into the world of hypermobility syndromes — what they actually mean, how to tell when “double-jointed” becomes a problem, and the most common areas we see it affect with focus on the thumb, shoulder, and knee. We’ll talk through evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment approaches, share real-world clinical experiences, and highlight key pearls (and pitfalls) for managing these flexible but often frustrating joints.

Whether you’re a provider, a patient, or just curious about what being “too bendy” really entails, this episode breaks it down with practical insight— Joint Effort style.
