If your pain is getting worse—not better—you need answers now.
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is treatable.
But delays can turn a reversible condition into long term disability.
The earlier you act, the better your outcome.
Do You Have Early Signs of CRPS?
You may need urgent assessment if you’ve had an injury or surgery to the hand/ arm/ foot and notice:
- Burning, severe, or “out of proportion” pain
- Pain from light touch (clothing, water, air)
- Temperature differences between limbs
- Skin colour changes (red, purple, pale)
- Swelling or unusual sweating
- Stiffness or reduced movement
Even 2–3 of these symptoms is enough to act early.

FAQs
Is CRPS curable?
Early CRPS can often be reversed or significantly improved with prompt treatment.
Do I need a referral?
Yes, a referral from your treating doctor is needed for Medicare and Insurance rebates. It also helps us to understand your medical status better prior to consultation.
What if I’ve had symptoms for months?
It’s still worth assessment—earlier is better, but it’s never too late to improve things.
The biggest mistake is waiting for certainty instead of acting on early signs.
CRPS doesn’t wait.
And neither should you.
