Hello Dear. Because there is no cure for CRPS, the goal of treatment is to relieve painful symptoms associated with the disorder. Kindly go to your doctor and discuss about the following therapies. Therapies used include
psychotherapy,
physical therapy, and drug treatment, such as topical analgesics, narcotics,
corticosteroids,
osteoporosis medication, antidepressants, osteoporosis medicines, and antiseizure drugs.
Other treatments include:
1. Sympathetic
nerve blocks: These blocks, which are done in a variety of ways, can provide significant pain relief for some people. One kind of block involves placing an
anesthetic next to the spine to directly block the sympathetic nerves.
2. Surgical sympathectomy: This controversial technique destroys the nerves involved in CRPS. Some experts believe it has a favorable outcome, while others feel it makes CRPS worse. The technique should be considered only for people whose pain is dramatically but temporarily relieved by selective sympathetic blocks.
3. Intrathecal drug pumps: Pumps and implanted catheters are used to send pain-relieving medication into the spinal fluid.
4.
Spinal cord stimulation: This technique, in which electrodes are placed next to the spinal cord, offers relief for many people with the condition.
