”Loose or lax ligaments in turn are not capable of supporting joints as effectively as healthy ones, making the affected individual prone to further injury as well as compensation for the weakness using other parts of the body. Afflicted individuals may improve over time and lose some of their juvenile hyperlaxity as they age. Individuals over age 40 often have recurrent joint problems and almost always have chronic pain. Back patients with ligamentous laxity in the area of the spine may also experience osteoarthritis and disc degeneration.

In the case of extreme laxity, or hypermobility, affected individuals often have a decreased ability to sense joint position, which can contribute to joint damage. The resulting poor limb positions can lead to the acceleration of degenerative joint conditions. Many hypermobility patients have osteoarthritis, disorders involving nerve compression, chondromalacia patellae, excessive anterior mandibular movement, mitral valve prolapse, uterine prolapse and varicose veins.”

Why are diseases of the immune system especially dangerous?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Diseases of the immune system are especially dangerous because they attack the very cells that destroy other diseases. AIDS (auto immunodeficiency syndrome) basically makes the immune system kill itself. Basically, white blood cells kill other cells, (including its own white blood cells) instead of killing viruses or bacteria, in turn making your immune system very weak. If your immune system is weak, a simple cold can turn into a nightmare, and can even result in death.
