Today’s broadcast is covering Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) or more specifically Complex Regional Pain Syndrome type 1 (CRPS-1). We will also discuss nerve related injuries classified as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome type 2 (CRPS-2) formerly known as causalgia. Many patients with chronic unrelenting pain following trivial or significant trauma classified under these umbrellas feel dejected with a lack of acceptance regarding their condition as well as there being a lack of answers. In today’s broadcast we will describe the mechanisms as to why RSD/CRPS occurs and discuss treatment options.
