I’ve got mild EDS and so far (thirties), it’s just helpful (as long as you stay active and maintain good core muscles). Extreme EDS can result in your skin sloughing off or all of your joints dislocating in your sleep, so it’s not something to ignore, but if the only symptom is your thumb touching your wrist, you might just be lucky.
That sounds really inconvenient, I’m sorry. I can dislocate certain joints at will (fingers, shoulders, knees, and hips), but it doesn’t just happen, luckily. I do wonder how much worse it will get as I get older, but I haven’t been able to find much on mild cases in later years.
