I saw a patient today with Ehlers–Danlos syndrome. She is 13 years old and was recently diagnosed. Her major concerns at the moment are her fingers keep dislocating at the MP joint and one hip keeps dislocating when walking. I have considered something like TheraTogs for the hip but not sure if that will provide enough support. Another option is fitting her with a hip abduction brace. If anyone has any advice for this, it would be very helpful.
Thanks
