Hamstring exercises for hypermobile knee symptoms
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a hamstring strengthening program helps people with hypermobile conditions improve knee stability and reduce symptoms. You'll work with the study team to do specific exercises, and they'll check how your knees feel and function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if a special Pilates program can reduce pain in people with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or hypermobility spectrum disorder. You must have had pain for at least 3 months and be able to get on and off the floor on your own.
This study tests a tailored physical therapy (physiotherapy) approach for jaw pain caused by temporomandibular disorder (TMD) in people with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS). It may help reduce jaw muscle and joint pain and improve function.
This study tests a regenerative medicine approach for people with joint looseness (hypermobility) or instability that causes long-term pain. It uses injections (like dextrose, platelet-rich plasma, or a medication called doxycycline) to help strengthen the joint and reduce pain.
This study looks at how soft tissue movement relates to physical function in people with different orthopedic conditions, including hamstring injuries, flatfoot, and elbow ligament reconstruction. It may help doctors better understand recovery and improve treatment.
This trial is testing how to assess and manage joint instability in people who have unusually loose (hypermobile) joints. If you have moderate to severe loose joints, you may be able to join after screening checks like movement tests and health history.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive light therapy called photobiomodulation can reduce chronic pain and fatigue in people with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), a genetic condition affecting connective tissue. The light is applied to the skin and may help cells produce energy and reduce inflammation.
