Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), formerly called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), is a little understood chronic condition that causes intense pain,swelling, redness, sweating, temperature changes and extreme sensitivity to the slightest touch or breeze. CRPS usually occurs in one of the limbs and can “move” up the limb or even to other limbs. It is thought that CRPS may be the result of an autoimmune response to nerve damage, but frequently the source of the damage is unknown.
There is no cure for CRPS but Dr. Rubin can work to reduce or eliminate the symptoms and provide patients with the best quality of life possible. Treatments include medication, procedures, and physical therapy.
