Have you hurt your finger or finger, just so that your entire extremity will flare up in pain? Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic condition of pain that affects one of the limbs (arms, legs, arms, or legs), almost always after an injury or injury to that limb. CRPS is believed to be caused by damage to the nervous system and is determined by prolonged or excessive pain, as well as changes in skin color, temperature and / or edema in the affected area.
The main symptom of CRPS is chronic pain, which can be permanent, and in some people extremely uncomfortable or severe. The pain may feel like a burn or feeling of “fingers and needles,” or as if someone is squeezing an affected limb. The pain can spread to the entire arm or leg, although the initial injury could only be a finger or a finger. Pain can sometimes affect the opposite limb. In the affected area may be increased sensitivity, so that even a light touch is painful.
Formerly called causalgia or reflex sympathetic dystrophy, the symptoms of CRPS vary between individuals. Studies show that most cases are mild, and people gradually recover over time. In more severe cases, people do not recover and have a long-term disability. Anyone can get CRPS. It can strike at any age and affect both men and women.
Other common features of CRPS include:
- skin may appear shiny and thin
- abnormal sweating
- changes in the growth of nails and hair
- stiffness in affected joints
- coordination problems
- tremor or twitching of the affected limb
Currently, there is no single medical test to confirm CRPS. His diagnosis is based on a person’s medical history, symptoms and symptoms. But since some other conditions can cause similar symptoms, it is important to carefully study to rule out another cause.
No CRPS treatment has gained popularity, although physical rehabilitation is recommended. The Feldenkrais Method is a modern approach to pain relief in the CRPS without drugs, surgery or injection. The results can be wonderful. Feldenkrais uses a series of lessons and gentle manipulations with a person. This process “reorganizes” how parts of the body work together to ensure free and easy movement without pain. The Feldenkras CRPS treatment approach makes the following assumptions:
- injury to the affected area creates a malfunction in the affected limb
- this malfunction is primarily related to the nervous system and creates pain and other symptoms associated with CRPS
- restoring and reorganizing the nervous system for functional movement brings a very quick relief
- The Feldenkrais Method is successfully used to achieve this.
Sick and tired of their chronic regional pain? Consider the Feldenkrais method for comfortable and convenient CRPS treatment.
