thanks everyone. my pt basically said she'd NEVER give me any stretching exercises. i did the bp stretch back before i even knew i had eds or else i wouldve never done it. i scored 8/9 on the beighton scale. bending over is something i'm terrible at, zero flexibility, but my hips and shoulders, neck, hands, arms etc are all hypermobile.

what drives me bonkers is i can't do basic movements either. i can't (feel my fingertips obv--

extend my arm at my side with my wrist flexed (pulls at my elbow) i have this problem for two years now, before i hurt myself doing the bp stretch
turn my head and extend my arm at my side with my arm just out at my side

and it's been over a year! does this sound like scar tissue if I have otherwise normal ROM? i used to not even be able to extend my arm at my side, wrist extended or not. turning my head to the left and right feels constricted. should i get an mri of my bp? my pt said the mri wouldn't show anything, and i couldn't make someone cut me open without evidence. but then again, maybe it's just inflammed still. it's been a year but i've only been in pt for 6 months. if it's a straight bp traction injury would that have healed by now?

last whining moment my bones are all popping nonstop. on my left side in particular which is the more constricted side.

yesterday my c1 and c2 area started to pop some and then it was itching. i'm wondering if this is bc of the muscles getting too tight and squeezing the nerves? or if its bc there's not enough muscle there? i'm also wondering how much shoulder strengthening will help with my neck pain. my shoulders are completely emaciated now, they used to be normal looking
