Does any have RSD on there hands? if so, can you tell me if the pain comes and goes or the pain is on all the time? Also if it does comes and goes..what is the time period it stay for and the time period its gone for?

Yes, and it comes and goes several times throughout the day. It can be a very pronounced and strong deep bone ache and/or decreased sensation (but not anesthesia) of the fingers, intermittent sweating and occasional blotchiness. It all started from a shoulder arthroscopy gone wrong.

I think i got it after my had a pinch nerve on my neck for 3 weeks

how long have it been now that you have rsd on your hands?

I have full body RSD yes my hand pain comes and goes. some times it feels like I am on fire and then it acks down to the bone I cant type some times and I cant write most times. I am trying to go back to school but I am having a lot of problems. I have a spinal cord stimulator and I fell, part of my lead is in my spinal cord so I have to have it replaced but I also have a bad hard. my DR said I have a 15 % chance of waking up. So I am haveing a great deal of things going on. I have had RSD since 1997. My Rsd has spread over the years . I need someone that knows how I feel to talk with.. Please anyone that knows what I am going through please contact me

Thank you

which part of your body did the rsd started on?

Do anyone has Rsd on there Hands for a long time and did not spread to the body at all?

Yes, I have it in both hands from multiple hand surgeries. The symptoms can be different for each person and can last differently for each person. You may never find an exact match to what you have, but it doesn't mean you don't have it either. Mine started with constant pain, throbbing, swelling, tingling feelings, then one day my hands felt like they were on fire and they would get ice cold....it would come and go...sometimes days in between symptoms until it was constant. I still have it in both hands and no place else, except a smidge up in my wrists. I am sure there are symptoms I am forgetting because My whole nightmare started back in 2006 (not with RSD) but with surgeries!

I have RSD in my left hand and arm. It has spread up my arm, neck and shoulder. I was injured in 2002, but not diagnosed for four years after multiple surgeries. I don't have a wrist anymore due to bone fusion and carpelectomy. Good Luck, Lisa

You should consider trying Healing Touch which is energy work - worked well for my mom. *admin edit* Not expensive either.
