Arthritis of the Hand Arthritis of the Base of the Thumb Amputation and Prosthetics Brachial Plexus Injury ... Wrist Sprains Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy What is it? What causes it? Signs and symptoms. The pain associated with relex sympathetic dystrophy is often described as burning in nature. Swelling can cause painful joints and stiffness. RSD has three stages: Stage I (acute) may last up to three months. During this stage the symptoms include pain and swelling, increased warmth in the affected part/limb, and excessive sweating. There may be faster-than-normal nail and hair growth and joint pain during movement of the affected area (Figure 2). Stage II (dystrophic) can last three to 12 months. Swelling is more constant, skin wrinkles disappear, skin temperature becomes cooler, and fingernails become brittle. The pain is more widespread, stiffness increases, and the affected area becomes sensitive to touch. Stage III (atrophic) occurs from one year on. The skin of the affected area is now pale, dry, tightly stretched, and shiny. The area is stiff, pain may decrease, and there is less hope of getting motion back. Diagnosis.

Schott Save a personal copy of this article and quickly find it again with Furl.net. It's free! Save it. Causalgia and reflex sympathetic dystrophy are poorly understood disorders that most commonly follow trauma to a limb, although they are also seen in other medical conditions. Patients typically develop chronic burning pain, together with various combinations of sensory disturbances, swelling, and vasomotor, sudomotor, and trophic changes.[1-3] Traditionally, the pain is treated by interrupting the sympathetic supply to the painful area. Is this an effective approach? Periarterial sympathectomy was first used to treat causalgia, in which, by definition, major nerve injury occurs. Various forms of surgical sympathectomy have subsequently been carried out,[3 4] especially during war time, when controlled trials were not feasible, and so whether surgery was truly effective will never be known. Open surgical sympathectomy to relieve pain in causalgia and related conditions is rarely recommended now, not least because less invasive proceduresincluding endoscopic sympathectomy and percutaneous radiofrequency lesioning of the sympathetic trunkhave been developed, although critical evaluation of efficacy is awaited.[4]

Subscribe now >> Difficult to Manage Pain Of Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Q: I have a young woman friend who has been going to doctors for three years with the complaint of a severe limp. She has been told that she has Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) and that she’ll have to learn to live with this condition. Could you please explain this condition and what can be done about it? A: Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) is a pain syndrome following an injury in which one’s nerves have been damaged or traumatized in the context of a sometimes more significant injury. The mechanism by which the injury causes pain is unclear. In the spectrum of kinds of pain, the pain that results from RSD is chronic, often burning, and constant. Even minimal contact with one’s skin often sets off an intense wave of pain disproportionate to the degree of contact. It does not respond to the usual kinds of medications used to treat pain. Individuals with RSD often have a great deal of difficulty being properly diagnosed and are sometimes wrongly labeled as malingerers or accused of drug-seeking behavior. Treatment is usually on an outpatient basis and varies but can include: local anesthesia directed at the source of the pain physical therapy electrical stimulation of the nerve root

The syndrome usually develops in an injured limb, such as a broken leg, or following surgery. However, many cases of RSD involve only a minor injury, such as a sprain. And in some cases, no precipitating event can be identified. Pain may begin in one area or limb and then spread to other limbs. RSD/CRPS is characterized by various degrees of burning pain, excessive sweating, swelling, and sensitivity to touch. Symptoms of RSD/CRPS may recede for years and then reappear with a new injury.
