I see a pain anethesiologist who is familiar with crps. I also see a neurologist as needed. Plan on seeing a pain psychologist too. My pain anesthesiologist requires it because of the stress and depression crps brings with it.
Im not sure about the compression socks. Crps is considered to possibly be caused by not enough oxygen getting to the tissues- that's why hyperbaric oxygen treatments have been used. If your compression socks are tight enough to impede your circulation in any way, I would think that would be a problem. On the other hand, if they keep the swelling down, I would think that would be a positive. Perhaps someone else will chime in about this.
