What is Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)?

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a long-lasting pain condition that usually affects one arm or leg. It often starts after an injury, surgery, or health issue. Along with severe pain, CRPS can cause swelling, stiffness, and changes in skin color or temperature. Doctors diagnose it by reviewing your medical history, examining your body, and running tests. Treatment focuses on easing pain through physical therapy, medications, and special nerve treatments. Learning about CRPS is the first step toward working with your healthcare team to feel better and stay active.
