Treatment for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

Video Transcript

Hi! I am Monica and today I am going to talk to you about some of the CRPS exercises that you might see a physical therapist give someone who has CRPS or complex regional pain syndrome. CRPS is not a condition that should go untreated. You want to make sure that you see your family doctor and they'll more than likely send you to a physical therapist or an occupational therapist, so again these exercises are by in no way shape or form a substitute for treatment that you need from skilled medical providers. To give you an example, some of the exercises that again physical therapist, occupational therapist might prescribe if they do see a patient that does have CRPS. CRPS just for a little info for you is very painful and it does take a while to recover, so these exercises would be something that would be in a long term treatment plan. Again, only sample exercises, since every person is different and every case is different, the therapist is going to have to decide which type of exercises is going to work best and when they want them to be initiated.
