UNDERSTANDING THE CONDITION

What it means.

CRPS is a neuropathic pain condition affecting an upper or lower extremity and may include sensory, vasomotor, swelling, sweating, or motor/trophic changes. Symptoms and severity vary from patient to patient, so the diagnosis should be based on the complete clinical picture rather than a single symptom or imaging finding.

EVALUATION

Find the source before treating it.

At Renova Pain, evaluation begins with the history and physical examination. Imaging and prior records are reviewed when appropriate. The goal is to identify the most likely source of symptoms before recommending treatment.

POSSIBLE TREATMENT PATHWAYS

Treatment should fit the diagnosis.

Functional restoration
medication management
selected sympathetic blocks
SCS
DRG stimulation
PNS in selected focal patterns

When should you be evaluated?

Persistent, worsening, or function-limiting symptoms deserve an individualized evaluation. New or progressive weakness, bowel or bladder dysfunction, saddle numbness, severe headache with neurologic change, or other concerning symptoms may require urgent medical assessment.
