Zusammenfassung

Konstitutionelle Hypermobilität ist eine Normvariante mit überdurchschnittlich großer Beweglichkeit des myoskeletalen Systems. Als Konstitutionsmerkmal wird die schmächtig ausgebildete und in Ruhe hypotone Muskulatur verantwortlich gemacht. In einer Übersicht werden medizinische Bedeutung, Beschwerden, Untersuchung, Behandlung schmerzhafter Zustände und Möglichkeiten ihrer Vorbeugung besprochen.

Abstract

Benign hypermobility is a constitutional condition and is linked to somatic type. The spinal column and the extremity joints are more flexible from childhood and throughout adult life in the average person affected. This body build is believed to be due to thin, hypotonic and even weak muscles in most cases. Symptoms, clinical examination, the development of pain and patient management, including possible methods of prevention, are presented.
