What Is Rsd ? What Is Sympathetic Anyway ?

چکیده
To define Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) one should understand the terminology of sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. There are two different types of nervous systems controlling the body. One is the so-called "somatic" nervous system which has clear-cut anatomical structures and is controlled by the cerebral cortex (cerebral hemispheres) in a relatively volitional manner. We see, hear, touch, taste or smell something, and volitionally and knowingly respond positively or negatively towards the stimulus. We can influence our response through the judgment of higher centers of the brain (cerebral hemispheres). This is the "somatic" system which is strongly influenced and controlled by our conscious mind.
