Contact UsWhat Is Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome?
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a condition that affects the connective tissues (skin, joints, and blood vessels) and can cause overly flexible joints, as well as abnormally flexible and fragile skin. Typically, this syndrome becomes an issue if an individual with the condition undergoes a procedure that requires stitches because the skin is not durable enough to support them. Additionally, it can cause significant abdominal wall laxity.
At Pain Zero, our expert pain care doctors will conduct a thorough consultation to evaluate the specific characteristics of your Ehlers-Danlos condition before creating a customized procedure plan that will yield optimal results. To learn more or to schedule a consultation, contact one of our offices in Central Ohio.
Treatment for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
The most common signs and symptoms of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome include overly flexible joints that can dislocate; stretchy skin that appears exceptionally soft, velvety, and elastic; and fragile skin that bruises easily and doesn't heal well.
There is no cure for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, but with proper treatment, symptoms can be managed. Options include analgesic and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication, compound creams, ultrasound therapy, physical therapy, and minimally invasive surgery.
We manage all symptoms from POTS, mast cell activation, headache and abdominal discomfort. Joint laxity may cause pain and we offer many interventions to treat pain and discuss more permanent interventions.
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Reviews
Dr. T is the best! He took his time explaining each medication and the reason for prescribing it. Every recommendation, procedure and medication he has done or put me on has helped me to be pain free/ relieved my symptoms. It’s hard to find a Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos doctor in Ohio. Dr. T is quite knowledgeable with this condition and knows exactly how to treat it and prevent symptoms from occurring in the future. I fully trust this doctor and I am extremely happy with the results.
I had a great experience with Pain Zero and Dr. T. Scheduling was easy and communication was excellent from start to finish. My SI joint injections were successful, and Dr. T made the entire process comfortable and stress-free.What really stood out was how knowledgeable Dr. T is about Ehlers Danlos Syndrome which made me feel understood and confident in my care. I’m grateful to have found a provider who truly listens and understands complex conditions. I’ll definitely continue my journey with them for ongoing relief.
Dr Harris is the first doctor to ever make me feel seen. He doesn't gaslight me about my pain. He is always smiling and his presence lights up the room every time he comes in. He remembers details from conversations at previous appointments. He is through about explaining things and always happy to answer questions.I get trigger point injections 3x a year and SI joint injections 2x a year to help deal with pain related to Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I'm also prescribed a muscle relaxer to take as needed for my symptoms.The office staff remembers my name without me telling them during check in even though I only come in every three months or so. The office is always clean. I rarely wait more than 5-10 minutes for my appointment.
