What Is Complex Regional Pain Syndrome?

People can develop CRPS after experiencing trauma, surgery, fractures, or sprains. The exact cause of CRPS is still unknown, but nerve damage and an unusual bodily response to pain may play roles.

The symptoms of complex regional pain syndrome include:

• Intense sharp or dull pain
• Sensitivity to touch or temperature
• Swelling and stiffness in the injured area
• Changes in skin color, temperature, or texture
• Sweating in the affected area
• Muscle weakness and tremors

CRPS pain is often disproportionate to the original injury and can spread beyond the affected area.

Ketamine for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

CRPS can sometimes fade and alleviate itself, but many people experience chronic CRPS that disrupts their daily lives. Ketamine infusions may be able to help. Ketamine reduces bodily inflammation while blocking signals from NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors in the brain, which send pain signals to the body.

Ketamine can be especially effective for people who are resistant to more traditional forms of pain management, such as medications. Even better, ketamine may relieve symptoms of CRPS after just one infusion.
