Well, there's really not a wonderful answer to that question. They really don't know the definite cause of spread, just like they don't know what difinitively causes RSD/CRPS in the first place. Surgery, injury, ice, stress, illness, look at the spot wrong (LOL)...you get the point. Anything and nothing can cause spread. And you don't have to have all of the symptoms for it to be RSD. Sucks, I know!
