Complex Regional Pain Syndrome in a Non-traumatic Case: A Case Report

Abstract

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is an uncommon neuropathic pain illness characterized by extreme discomfort, muscular weakness, limb edema, and hyperhidrosis. Fracture, surgery, stroke, and spinal cord damage are all potential risk factors. This case report study provides a detailed description of no-traumatic CRPS, a complex pain illness characterized by sensory, vasomotor, sudomotor, motor, trophic, and edematous changes and persistent discomfort. We reported a case of a 39-year-old male with a seven-year history of severe right shoulder-hand pain. He presented with recurrent hand and shoulder pain characterized by burning sensations and weakness, despite not having experienced this before, and he denied any history of trauma or fracture. Surgical procedure and pharmaceutical therapy were provided, but there was no outcome, as evidenced by the patient's clinical condition and the medical records. Despite extensive investigation, no imaging or laboratory tests have been developed for diagnosis, necessitating further research for a comprehensive understanding and diagnosis.
