Hi. Well before I was DX I was put in an airboot for many months which very much worsened my rsd/pn. I can't say if it was a permanent worse because if that or this is the course it would of taken. I do know getting my leg mobile again took a lot of work and to even be able to wear a shoe. It was a lot of tears and extra pain. I'm still in a lot of pain and limited but can walk and wear shoes.
I think how this condition progresses or gets better varies so much from person to person. What are you doing now in terms of treatment and pain control?
