My question:

Is it normal using cutlery always hurts? Every single time I use knife, fork of spoon for anything else but scooping something soft, it hurts. It's been like this my entire life. Are people really in pain every time they eat without anyone speaking of it????

      I’m not sure what you mean by hypermobility. Joint flexibility in general doesn’t preclude arthritis or muscular-skeletal issues.

        Hypermobility is a musculoskeletal issue. The term is not used for the trained, controlled heightened mobility an athlete cultivates. A person with hypermobility has more vulnerable joints, and building and training musculature to limit their joints' range of motion is a treatment for it.
