Crps after foot fx/orif. bone not completely healed. dr-osteopenia. does crps cause this? what can i do? could crps be reason bone hasn't healed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful: osteopenia is x-ray and bone scan finding seen with chronic regional pain syndrome from disuse, changes in bone uptake, and vascular changes but have not seen any studies to show it slows healing of fracture. It is a neurogenic and vascular process primarily.
