I have been seeing a Bone specialist. I have been trying to find lots of info on RSD and I find most of it but some was confusing me cuz they didn't say anything about having problems when resting the affected area. But some of the info I find I print up or try to remember what was said and tell the doctor but he doesn't want to listen to me. He did put me in occupational therapy for 2 weeks but said that I shouldn't go anymore and just do what they showed me at home. But the occupational therapist wanted me to go longer. With this happening at work its hard to get workmans comp to cooperate sometimes. I haven't had any blocks but I was wondering if they are a type of anti inflammitory? Because if they are I cannot do them. I am allergic to them and have problems with prescription steriods they give to people who are allergic to the anti inflammitories. I do use my arm/hand as much as I can. But the fatigue seems to hit whether I use it a lot or just a little. It also looks like my hand is bruising right around the base of my thumb down to the wrist and up to the base knuckle of my hand on my pointer finger. Also is RSD a type of nerve damage or is that just depending on what type of RSD a person has?
Thank You
