November is CRPS Awareness Month! Happy first day of CRPS Awareness Month! 🥳🧡

CRPS Fact: There are two types of CRPS - Type 1 and Type 2
The easiest way to distinguish the two types is by determining if there was a clear nerve injury that occurred in the CRPS-affected area. Type 1 occurs after an illness or injury without clear nerve damage, while Type 2 occurs after clear nerve damage (NIH).

"Sometimes, people are first diagnosed with Type 1, but later tests show nerve damage, and the diagnosis changes to Type 2." - Stanford Medicine

Impact of CRPS on Mental Health | Welcome to Warrior Wednesdays, our weekly Wednesday posts dedicated to content about Warriors, for Warriors, by Warriors, or requested from Warriors. 🧡 If you have anything you want us to look into, please comment below. 📣

CRPS is viewed as a biopsychosocial disorder, meaning that addressing psychological and behavioral factors may be even more central to successful treatment in patients with CRPS.

Several studies suggest that those with CRPS may be more distressed than those with other chronic pain conditions and that emotional arousal and style of emotional regulation may contribute to more pain intensity in CRPS.

CRPS interferes with normal pain perception pathways, alters neuroplasticity, heightens sensitivity, and triggers abnormal trauma responses in the brain. This can lead to an emotional toll thats marked by anxiety triggers, emotional distress, and mental fatigue.

Long-term CRPS pain overstimulates the central nervous system, creating a feedback loop of emotional and physical distress. The pain signals can lead to psychological consequences like depression, anxiety, insomnia, isolation, and rumination.

Increased cortisol from stress increases inflammation, worsening CRPS symptoms. Some psychiatric conditions that commonly co-occur with CRPS:
• PTSD (in 20-30% of those with CRPS)
• generalized anxiety disorder (in 25-40% of those with CRPS)
• panic disorder (in 10-15% of those with CRPS)

Treatment modalities include:
• psychotherapy = includes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or acceptance commitment therapy (ACT)
• medications = various types of antidepressants for emotional stability
• biofeedback and neurofeedback = reduces physical pain through brain training
• integrative therapy = combines physical rehab with psychological support
• mindfulness = regain mental composure through pain management and emotional control
Proper sleep hygiene, anti-inflammatory diets, nature therapy, and community support can be beneficial for emotional wellness and resilience.

Among a study of 103 adolescent CRPS patients, treatment incorporating medication management, regular active physical therapy, and psychological counseling reportedly resulted in 92% of the 103 adolescents achieving symptom-free status.

Notable intervention for CRPS include combining passive physical therapy, pain coping skills, and relaxation training which resulted in significantly improved pain, active range of motion, and impairment levels. Clinical studies suggest that psychological interventions are likely to be a useful part of a comprehensive multidisciplinary treatment package.
