  1. Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy or the new name that RSD is now known as is Complex Regional Pain Syndrome or CRPS. It is a chronic pain condition in which the sympathetic nervous system misfires pain signals to the brain. RSD/CRPS is a condition that usually appears after some type of injury or trauma. To get more information about RSD/CRPS go to www.rsds.org www.rsdhope.org or www.rsdfoundation.org  


  2. something with the weiner

  3. I think that it might mean this - Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy and if you have a look at the website I have found for you - you are partially right about it involving the nerves, but have a read for yourself


  4. Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) also is called complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS)  RSD is a chronic, painful, progressive condition that affects skin, muscles, and bones

    Reflex sympathetic dystrophy often develops following an injury or surgery

    RSD/CRPS can occur with nerve injury or without nerve injury
