I contracted RSD in 2002 in my left ankle after a fall in which I sprained my ankle. For two years I was in constant pain, but it gradually tapered off and I have been pain free for about 7 years. Yesterday I slipped on ice and injured my wrist. They didn't see a fracture on x-ray, but suspect there is a hairline one. My fear however, is that the RSD will come back. I am trying not to scare myself, but I can't help thinking about it.

My question is...what can I do to help prevent the return of RSD? Is there anything I should or shouldn't do?
