What is the difference between mild crps and neuropathy?

Neuropathy: Complex regional pain syndrome is a kind of a neuropathy, which is thought to involve the small autonomic nerves. Most "neuropathies" tend to have numbness and tingling, at times burning type symptoms. The small fiber neuropathies tend to be the burning kind. The autonomic neuropathies also involve small fiber nerves, so there is overlap.

?mild: Am truly not familiar with a case of mild crps, as all of my multiple pts were seriously, and substantially impaired, and if that is your label, i would doubt you possess crps. To reconfirm, suggest qsart test. Peripheral neuropathy is maybe far better explanation, especially small fibre neuropathy, which could be diagnosed via skin punch biopsy. Ask your doctor about this.
