Today we will be discussing RSD also known as complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) type 1. In today’s broadcast we will not only distinguish RSD from CRPS type 2 but also delve into the research regarding causes of the pain for RSD sufferers and the continue heightened pain to normally non painful stimuli. Small fiber neuropathy as well as inflammatory causes will be highlighted. Please enjoy.
