Please help. My wife has rib subluxation problems for over 4 years and we are desperate.
Hospital: you are hypermobile in your shoulder. Please try to strengthening your muscles around the shoulder area with a physiotherapist.
Physiotherapist: this is way too painful for you and I see that a rib is out of his alignment. Please visit an Musculoskeletal medicine doctor.
Musculoskeletal medicine doctor: we have to correct the skeleton. This gave some release. But the pain was back within a few days. He gave up, after 5 treatment. We visit another musculoskeletal medicine doctor and he acknowledge the rib subluxation in the middle of her back. He also gave up, after 5 treatments.
We do not know what to do next and nobody can help us in The Netherlands. All tips are welcome!

Has your wife had a diagnosis of hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or hypermobility spectrum disorder? It might be an idea to find a physiotherapist who is experienced in treating people with hypermobility as not all of them are. There is a support group in The Netherlands that might be able to help. ehlers-danlos.com/affiliate...
Some hypermobility spectrum disorder symptoms match the pain symptoms which my wife experiences. We will see a hypermobility physiotherapist at the end of this month. Thank you!
