What is Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) Syndrome? RSD is an older term used to describe one form of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). Both RSD and CRPS are chronic conditions characterized by severe burning pain, most often affecting one of the extremities (arms, legs, hands, or feet).
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a broad term describing excess and prolonged pain and inflammation that follows an injury to an arm or leg. CRPS has acute (recent, short-term) and chronic (lasting greater than six months) forms. CRPS used to be known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) and causalgia.
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), formerly known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome (RSDS), is a condition that causes pain; swelling; changes in skin color, texture and temperature and other symptoms. It usually affects your extremities – an arm, leg, hand or foot – but can affect any part of your body.
There are two categories of CRPS: type 1, previously known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy or RSD, and type 2, previously known as causalgia. The difference between these two types is whether nerve damage is involved. Overall, CRPS is not a common condition.
Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) is a type of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). This condition occurs because of malfunctions in your sympathetic nervous system and immune system. RSD causes severe pain in one or more limbs that lasts months or longer.
RSD doesn't have a cure, but it's possible to recover from many of the symptoms. Some of the medications your doctor may suggest include: Anesthetic creams like lidocaine. Antidepressants.
In CRPS type I, there are no nerve injuries or lesions identified. CRPS type I is also known as “reflex sympathetic dystrophy,” and it comprises about 90 percent of all cases of CRPS. CRPS type II (causalgia), on the other hand, is diagnosed when there is evidence of nerve damage.
Although the key distinguishing feature between type 1 and type 2 CRPS is the presence of nerve injury in the latter, the symptoms in type 2 still exceed the territory of the injured nerve and are far more complex than expected for neuropathic pain, resembling, thus, to the symptoms of CRPS type 1.
In 1994, a consensus group of pain medicine experts gathered by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) agreed on diagnostic criteria for reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) and causalgia, and renamed them complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) types I and II, respectively.
Although patients with neuropathy often describe the pain as burning, they exhibit a less complex clinical picture than patients with CRPS type II and do not show marked swelling or the progressive spread of symptoms.
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), previously called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), is a condition that generally affects an arm or a leg but can affect other body parts.
In and of itself, the disease is not fatal. Morbidity of RSDS is associated with disease progress through a series of stages (see Physical). Schwartzman et al recently reviewed questionnaires from 656 patients with CRPS.

Symptoms of RSD often occur in three stages:acute,dystrophic, and.atrophic.
If the sympathetic nervous system is damaged, however, the blood vessels do not constrict and blood pressure progressively decreases.
