CRPS & Rare Pain Conditions in Beverly Hills

CRPS is a chronic and severe pain disorder often characterized by intense pain, hypersensitivity, burning, throbbing, and/or swelling in the affected limb following an injury. The diagnosis of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome is made with specific and validated criteria known as the “Budapest Criteria.”

Treatment of CRPS

Treatment options for both types of CRPS are varied and depend on the severity and duration of the symptoms, though they all attempt to relieve painful systems and restore full function of the affected limb. Common treatments include physical therapy, psychological counseling, medications, spinal cord stimulation, and sympathetic nerve blocks.
