I've posted at least twice the studies done in the UK on trauma or surgery to the wrist or ankle, and Vit C preventing subsequent RSD.

This post has one link in it to a PubMed article.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19840748

This patient improved using Vit C 2 yrs AFTER RSD
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19556664

I found 15 articles about this by using keyword:
Vitamin C reflex sympathetic dystrophy on PubMed.

We had a poster here long ago who has now passed away,
Vicc who really suggested strongly to use antioxidants like grapeseed extract for RSD to help prevent spread. Now with the information about Vitamin C which is an antioxidant too, this seems worth exploring IMO.
