What Is Ehlers Danlos?
2. Different Types
There are 13 different types of Ehlers Danlos that we know of, and some of them are more common than others. Indeed, some are very rare indeed. There are differences between the different types, although all of them share some similarities. The severity of the conditions can vary, and the rarer types tend to be the most dangerous.
Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome is among the most common, and it is typified by joints that are particularly flexible. Another relatively common variety is classical Ehlers Danlos, which tends to affect the patient’s skin. The different types will also have slightly different causes.
