  • A Randomised Controlled Trial Comparing Two Different Knee Exercise Programmes in the management of Adolescents with Symptomatic Joint Hypermobility

    Joint Hypermobility Syndrome is a common but poorly recognised condition which mainly affects children. Joint hypermobility or double-jointedness can result in significant symptoms of pain, often described as growing pains, and symptoms of fatigue. This research study aims to find out what the best set of physiotherapy exercises is to reduce knee pain in individuals with joint hypermobility and pain. We are looking to recriut 40 teenagers aged 12-16 with knees that bend backward and are sore and give them 8 weeks of physiotherapy to see if it helps with the pain. Physiotherapy is the recommended treatment in this situation but reaserch to prove that it works has never been done, also different hospitals recommend different types of physiotherapy exercises and we will try and find out which ones work best or if there is no difference.
