| Question Number 1: Is complex regional pain syndrome a brain injury with severe pain condition? | |
| Answer To Question 1: No. Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is not a brain injury associated with pain. CRPS is a debilitating, painful condition in a limb, associated with sensory, motor, autonomic, skin and bone abnormalities. CRPS commonly arises after injury to that limb. It is essentially an imbalance of the peripheral sympathetic nervous system. | |
| Question Number 2: Does your complex regional pain syndrome service have any connection to the RUH in Bath service? | |
| Answer To Question 2: No. We have no direct links with Bath. | |
