Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (Crps)

Doctor Alaa Abd-Elsayed and Eric M. Phillips, have recognized the importance of promoting awareness and education on the topic of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) in volume VIIof this book. VolumeVII of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS): Patients' Perspective of Living in Chronic Pain, continues with patients sharing stories of their daily struggles with CRPS.
CRPS affects millions of people worldwide. The disease causes patients to suffer from constant chronic pain after minor trauma or surgery. The purpose of this book is to share the stories of how CRPS impacts the lives of patients.
We hope that these stories will enlighten how CRPS disrupts the patient's life on many levels, from having family issues, social issues, financial distress, and howthe medical community treats these patients. It is our hope this book will help educate the public, the medical community, and promote more awareness about CRPS.
