My RSD started in both hands and spread to both feet back in Feb of this year. I walk everyday in hopes of keeping the swelling down and my mobility. My feet actually swell more when I sit but the pain of standing is bad too so a little of everything works for me
I take my pain meds, put my lidocaine patches on my feet and do multiple short walks. My PM doesn't push me he just said keep moving and I truly believe it helps. Mentally and physically. My pain meds mess with my brain and balance so I always take a walking buddy, it makes me feel safer.
Trust your gut and listen to your body
