From a little study i conducted, i found out that three out of ten persons suffer from regular joint dislocation, expecially in areas like the knee and shoulder. I named it reflex joint dislocation because, the joint tend to give away( dislocate) with little or no provocation, and after a while falls back in place, leaving the sufferer in a great deal of pain.
Am not a doctor or a medical practicional what so ever, but am about to go into a great deal of research on the subject matter to see what could be the cause of this painfull experience people go through everyday, possible (non surgical) cure or how sufferers can manage this problem.
Interested researchers, sufferes, doctors in the house and all other medical practionals are invited to share their knowledge, views and finds about the subject matter.
Thank you

am recovering from one dislocation at my right shoulder wich i sustained sum months ago on d bball court...it hurtslike hell

Ordinarily, the hips and shoulders dislocate only after significant force is applied to them, such as from athletic activities or a motor vehicle accident. Our joints have strong ligaments that hold the joints in proper position and prevent excessive motion that could cause dislocation.

If you are having repeated dislocations of your hips, shoulders and knees, it's possible you have a "hypermobility syndrome." As the name suggests, people with hypermobility syndromes have joints that are more mobile than normal due to looseness of the ligaments. The loose ligaments not only allow excessive motion, but also may not hold the bones in place as they should. Recurrent joint dislocations may follow. However, there is usually at least some pain.

Many people with hypermobility have loose joints but are otherwise healthy. Others, such as those with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or Marfan syndrome, have additional problems such as heart valve or eye abnormalities.

Hypermobility syndromes are usually present from birth. Therefore, it's possible that your symptoms are due to something else. For example, some people with symptoms like yours actually have arthritis or tendonitis.
Hypermobility describes joints that stretch further than normal. For example, some hypermobile people can bend their thumbs backwards to their wrists, bend their knee joints backwards, put their leg behind the head or perform other contortionist "tricks". It can affect one or more joints throughout the body.

CAUSES:


Hypermobility generally results from one or more of the following:

Misaligned joints
Abnormally shaped ends of one or more bones at a joint
A Type 1 collagen or other connective tissue defect (as found in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome and Marfan syndrome) resulting in weakened ligaments/ligamentous laxity, muscles and tendons. This same defect also results in weakened bones, which may result in osteoporosis and fractures.
Abnormal joint proprioception (an impaired ability to locate body parts in space and/or monitor an extended joint)
These abnormalities cause abnormal joint stress, meaning that the joints can wear out, leading to osteoarthritis.

The condition tends to run in families, suggesting that a genetic basis for at least some forms of hypermobility. The term double jointed is often used to describe hypermobility; however, the name is a misnomer and should not be taken literally, as hypermobile joints are not doubled/extra in any sense.

Most people have hypermobility with no other symptoms. Approximately 5% of the healthy population have one or more hypermobile joints. However, people with "joint hypermobility syndrome" are subject to many difficulties. For example, their joints may be easily injured, be more prone to complete dislocation due to the weakly stabilized joint and they may develop problems from muscle fatigue (as muscles must work harder to compensate for weakness in the ligaments that support the joints). Hypermobility syndrome can lead to chronic pain or even disability in severe cases. Musical instrumentalists with hypermobile fingers may have difficulties when fingers collapse into the finger locking position or may display superior abilities due to their increased range of motion for fingering - such as in playing a violin or cello.

Hypermobility may be symptomatic of a serious medical condition, such as Stickler Syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome,[1] Marfan syndrome,[1] Loeys-Dietz syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, osteogenesis imperfecta,[1] lupus, polio, Down syndrome,[1] morquio syndrome, cleidocranial dysostosis or myotonia congenita.

Hypermobility has been associated with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. Hypermobility causes physical trauma (in the form of joint dislocations, joint subluxations, joint instability, sprains, etc.). These conditions often, in turn, cause physical and/or emotional trauma and are possible triggers for conditions such as fibromyalgia.[2]

During pregnancy, the body releases certain hormones that alter ligament physiology easing the stretching needed to accommodate fetal growth as well as the birthing process. For women with hypermobility conditions pregnancy-related pelvic girdle, pain during pregnancy can be debilitating due to these two converging factors. Pain often inhibits such women from standing up or walking during pregnancy. The pregnant patient may be forced to use a bedpan and/or a wheelchair during pregnancy (possibly associated with permanent disabilities). The pregnant woman with hypermobile joints will often be in significant pain as muscles and joints adapt to the pregnancy.

Symptoms of hypermobility include a dull but intense pain around the knee and ankle joints and the soles of the feet. The pain and discomfort affecting these body parts can be alleviated by using custom orthoses.

HYPERMOBILITY SYNDROME:

The joint hypermobility syndrome is a condition that features joints that easily move beyond the normal range expected for a particular joint. The joint hypermobility syndrome is considered a benign condition. It is estimated that 10%-15% of normal children have hypermobile joints or joints that can move beyond the normal range of motion. Hypermobile joints are sometimes referred to as "loose joints," and those affected are referred to as being "double jointed."

SYMPTOMS:

People with hypermobility syndrome may develop other conditions caused by their unstable joints. These conditions include:

Joint instability causing frequent sprains, tendinitis, or bursitis when doing activities that would not affect others
Joint pain
Early-onset osteoarthritis (as early as during teen years)
Subluxations or dislocations, especially in the shoulder (Severe limits to ability to push, pull, grasp, finger, reach, etc., is considered a disability by the US Social Security Administration).[8]
Knee pain
Back pain, prolapsed discs or spondylolisthesis
Joints that make clicking noises (also a symptom of osteoarthritis.)
Susceptibility to whiplash
Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome also known as TMJ
Increased nerve compression disorders (e.g. carpal tunnel syndrome)
The ability of finger locking
Poor response to anaesthetic or pain medication
"Growing pains" as described in child
