Kind of icky but need to ask....
 

Can Crps cause Abscesses? I'm not prone to them. And have had to start taking baths and switched out my shower head because it sprayed the water too hard and hurt "burning" pains when showering fun....
anyway I have an abscess on my upper shoulder? And wasn't sure if it was Crps related?

Is it like a boil perhaps? Or an open sore?

I already know what it is. I just wasn't sure if Crps can make your skin more prone to them. I was able to get an appointment with my specialist tomorrow due to the worsened spreading and not sleeping I didn't discover the abscess until my bath last night. So I'll ask tomorrow I was just wondering if anyone has experienced any type of skin problems or infections due to crps. I suppose I should have worded it better but I haven't been sleeping well.....zzzzz

There are lots of photos in the sticky thread with many kinds of skin rashes and sores posted by the members here. You might find more info on that thread.

i have gotten abcesses in my mouth and back from rsd. my pm dr said rsd can cause problems like this. it also takes forever to heal. i just try to keep the area dry and let it take its course.
