Has anyone else tried this? Did it help your CRPS?
Thanks in advance! I'll post how it goes for me.

I once, before I was on pain medication, had a capsaicin topical treatment (cotton wool doused pads that fit around the lower leg). It burned like hell. That's all I can say about it.
I say, what does it hurt to try, but you'll have to check with a *doctor*, if someone else recommended this to you.
I wouldn't play with something as serious as RSD, but that's me. I believe in "medicine" (as a field), not so much "the rest", IYKWIM.
