Double jointed and loose skin

Posted , 1 user is following.

I have lots of loose skin in my hands (palms) and feet. My finger are double jointed and doesn't look straight. I'm 30 (Male) now and I have been like this since birth. I went to an ortho couple of years ago and she just said I'm double jointed but did not specify what my condition is called. Is double jointed same as Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS). Also I have very dry skin especially in hands and feet but no chronic pain or anything like that. Please see my pictures of hands and feet. I would appreciate if someone can help me on what should I do. Is this some I should be concerned?imageimageimage
