Is Relfex Sympathetic Dystrophy curable and will I be able to play soccer again?


I was just diagnosed with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) I am very active, I play soccer, and run cross-country and track. I need to know whether I will ever be able to do these things again without chronic pain.

hi,
I got diagnosed with RSD a few months ago after a major surgery. If you are not in a lot of pain, I don't see why not. RSD is painful, but with medicine, improves a lot(for me anyway). If you got diagnosed with RSD before it was in the later stages, then there is a good chance it will go away, but it takes time. My neurologist said I am not going to wake up one morning and feel 100% better, and can be months,or even years before i am fully recovered. I would listen to your doctor, and take your medicine, and hoprfully your pain starts to fade away.
good luck=)
