Loss of function: Crps is most characterized by a loss of function and normal structure. There are changes in the underlying bony structures as well as nerve functions in the area involved. This diagnosis is sometimes overly aggressively applied to much simpler conditions.Make sure that simple diagnoses such as tendinitis and trigger points are addressed first.

Many: Please see a pain specialist soon. If you are talking about a pediatric patient, get to a children's hospital for a pain specialist with peds experience. It will make a difference.
