Abstract

The clinical picture of people with Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) is complex and involves avariety of potential causes of pain. This poses major challenges to patients and healthcare professionals alike in terms of diagnosis and management of the condition. The aim of the article was to provide an overview of the specific pain management needs of patients with EDS and address their background. Aselective literature search was performed to highlight the current state of research on pain management in EDS patients. Affected patients require multimodal pain management considering their individual needs, disease-specific features, and comorbidities. Medical awareness and evidence need to be further improved to enhance the medical care situation of these patients with complex needs.
