You could draw a huge circle around from the neck over the left shoulder bone across the spine and up. Primarly on left side. This is my upper back not lower. I know my RSD is in my spine , it has been for some time, but what I want to know is if anyone else experiences this- I'm on the 5th day of it and I can barely lean back in a chair or lie in bed?? Please let me kknow if you have experienced this . thanks so much. CZ

Hi CZ,
Is it possible you have been bitten by something and have cellulitis?
1.5 inches higher is a huge amount of swelling for a localised area like that.
Can you go to the doctor? Maybe you need some antibiotics.
I realise that it is sometimes really hard to differentiate between painful and burning sensations when you have RSD but maybe this is a combination
Wishing you luck
Tayla
