Exploring the outcomes of rehabilitation for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), a new study challenges longstanding assumptions about the role of symptom duration in recovery. Traditionally, early intervention (<1 year) was thought to yield better results. However, findings suggest that patients with persistent CRPS (≥1 year) not only benefit equally from rehabilitation but also sustain improvements more effectively. Dive into this groundbreaking research to understand what this means for patients and healthcare providers alike.
