A member asked:
I've been in a lot of pain lately with crps. does desentizing and using the affected extremity increase the pain? i think i'm overusing, stop progress

Maybe: In general more activity is a good thing with crps - however u certainly can overdue things. The most important thing is to use the extremity as if it was not injured - don't baby it.
