A member asked:
Can you tell me if there are good treatments for rsd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Therapy, symp blocks: Rsd is treated with desensitization physical therapy. Sympathetic blocks may help treat the disease earlier on in its course but must be done with the therapy. Medication can help the symptoms. Dorsal column stimulation has also been shown to be beneficial... You need to see a physician who can treat this disease for you and the sooner the better. I hope you find some relief.
