Raising Awareness for Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder

Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD), is a disorder that causes a child’s connective tissues, joints, ligaments, and sinew that connect their muscles to stretch and be overly flexible. Their joints move beyond the normal range of motion. Not a lot is known about this generalized condition, which beyond joint flexibility can cause many complications and affect multiple body systems, and pediatrician Mekhla Varma, MD, is raising awareness about HSD.
