Differential endogenous pain modulation in complex-regional pain syndrome.
Endogenous pain modulation may provide facilitation or inhibition of nociceptive input by three main mechanisms. Firstly, modification of synaptic strength in the spinal dorsal horn may increase or decrease transmission of nociceptive signals to the brain.

It is a multifactorial condition with a complex cause and even more complex pathophysiology. There are disturbances and changes in the sympathetic, somatosensory and motor nervous system, resulting in severe pain and disability. Patients with CRPS can have their quality...

It is a disabling disease with simultaneous involvement of nerve, skin, muscle, blood vessels, and bones. CRPS is characterized by “regional”, not focal, disproportionate pain and multiple symptoms in addition to pain, which may include changes in skin blood flow resulting in a warm or cool ext...
