Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS): a cross-cutting health issue
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) is a heterogeneous condition that is often underdiagnosed, combining chronic pain, hypermobility, instability, fatigue, functional disorders, and multisystemic involvement.
👉 General practitioners and specialists (physical medicine and rehabilitation, rheumatology, genetics, neurology, cardiology, internal medicine, etc.) play a key role in:
• diagnostic guidance
• coordination of the care pathway

• the link between specialized care, paramedical care, and patients
