Crps- normal for swelling to change throughout the day? can headaches be a symptom? fracture/orif caused crps- hasn't healed- more surgery good idea?

No: More surgery likely not the answer. See a physician who specializes in CRPS. The best treatment is usually a combination of medication, therapy, biofeedback, and in some cases injections.

Rsd-crps: usually pain and other symptoms are localized to the area affected, but who knows, this pathology is still a grey area. see a good pain doctor in your area. repeat surgery only make things worse.
