CRPS injury lawyers
If you or a loved one suffers from CRPS related to an accident or injury caused by another party, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries.

Formerly known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome (RSDS), Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a form of chronic pain that causes severe pain and inflammation usually affecting an arm or leg – though it can affect other body parts.
Defined by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, CRPS generally follows a traumatic injury to the arm or leg and can cause changing combinations of spontaneous pain or excess pain that is much greater than normal following something as mild as a touch.
CRPS is a neuropathic pain condition, characterized by a dysfunction in the central or peripheral nervous systems, meaning that with neuropathic pain, the pain isn’t typically triggered by an event or injury.
Instead, the body just sends pain signals to your brain unprompted.
With a pain level of 42 out of 50 on the McGill University Pain Scale, CRPS has one of the most severe levels of pain, classifying it as the most painful chronic pain condition known.
CRPS symptoms vary in duration from person to person, continuous pain being the leading and most disabling symptom.
Typically, the number of symptoms reduces during recovery.
CRPS signs and symptoms may include:
In more than 90% of cases, CRPS occurs after a forceful trauma to an arm or a leg.
This can include a crushing injury or a fracture, damaging sensory nerve fibers that transmit pain, itch, and temperature sensations and control the small blood vessels and health of almost all surrounding cells.
Some of the most common situations where CRPS can occur due to a forceful nerve trauma are:
CRPS can develop in vehicle accidents causing leg or wrist fractures that injure nerves from a displaced or splintered bone.
If the vehicle accident is severe enough, nerve injuries can occur from deep cuts, burns, muscle sprains/ruptures, and even during emergency surgeries.
Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, at any time, to anyone.
Unfortunately, a bad slip can place a lot of force into the wrist of a hand trying to reduce the fall, possibly breaking the wrist and injuring nerves from the displaced or splintered bones.
An unexpected fall from a great height can also place a forceful injury to the ankles or shin, leading to bone fractures and possible nerve injuries.
In the workplace, there can be a multitude of workplace injury opportunities, ranging from machine-use accidents to getting struck by objects/moving machinery to any catastrophic injury.
Each accident can severely affect a limb, either spraining it or fracturing it, causing nerve injury and possibly developing CRPS.
Severe bike accidents can badly injure a limb, resulting in possible bone fractures and nerve traumas.
In accidents where a tight cast is placed CRPS can develop, as the pressure from a tight cast presses on nerves and restricts blood flow.
On some occasions, events that penetrate the skin (like a dog bite), can accidentally pierce a superficial sensory nerve, causing more pain than otherwise.
Almost all personal injuries can result in CRPS, so individuals who suffer from CRPS related to other injuries may still qualify for legal action.
It is best to talk to a chronic regional pain syndrome lawyer about your accident or injury to determine what next steps to take.
While there’s no specific test available to diagnose CRPS, Complex regional pain syndrome can be diagnosed through careful history, physical examination, and review of symptoms.
A healthcare provider would look for a specific number of symptoms (as outlined before) to determine if there’s CRPS.
Some procedures can provide insight such as a sympathetic nervous system nerve block, bone scan, x-rays, and MRI.
If experiencing consistent, severe pain in a limb making it difficult to move it or even touch it, see a doctor immediately.
Early treatment is very important as CRPS can cause the affected limb to stiffen over time, making the pain worsen and any movement more difficult.
Currently, there is no cure for complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).
The main goal of treatments is to decrease pain and other symptoms present, restoring function to the affected limb(s), and maintain or improve the quality of life.
Early treatment may limit the progress of CRPS and improve the chances of a quick recovery.
As we mentioned, there is currently no cure for CRPS.
However, treatment can still be done to reduce pain and improve your quality of life.
The five (5) most common forms of CRPS treatment are:
To maintain limb mobility and restoration of function.
Tricks your brain into thinking you can move both limbs normally by looking at the reflection of the movement of your unaffected limb in a mirror.
Involves touching the affected area with materials of different textures to let the brain adjust to the different sensations and lower pain felt.
CRPS increases anxiety, depression, and stress, which can increase pain.
Psychotherapy (“talk therapy”) involves learning ways to cope with these and other factors that contribute to your pain.
There are no specific medications approved CRPS in the U.S. but there are a variety of drug classes that help relieve the pain felt.
If you are suffering from CRPS, there are steps that you can take to minimize the damages caused by your injury and to gain compensation for those injuries.
If you experience constant, severe pain that affects a limb and makes touching or moving that limb seem intolerable, see your doctor determine the cause.
It’s important to treat CRPS early. Make sure to follow their orders, do everything in your power to mitigate further injury and future economic impacts related to your injury.
After you have gotten proper medical treatment, contact a TorHoerman Law (chronic regional pain syndrome) lawyer if your injury was caused by another party’s negligence.
