Study Details

The purpose of this study is to examine the frequense of generalized hypermobility and pain in patients with Anorexia Nervosa. The study further explores two main questions: (1) whether generalized hypermobility may be an explanatory factor for pain in some patients with Anorexia Nervosa, and (2) whether temporomandibular joint problems (such as instability, pain, difficulties opening the mouth, locking, or clicking) contribute to eating difficulties in certain individuals with Anorexia Nervosa.
