Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
Quote:
Hyperextensibility
Cutaneous hyperextensibility (stretchy skin) characterises all types of EDS, except for the Vascular Type (type lV), which has noticeably translucent skin with visible veins. When skin is over-stretched it still retains normal elastic recoil and snaps back once released. This is best tested at the neck, elbows, or knees.
