A child patient followed-up with the diagnosis of recurrent complex regional pain syndrome

Abstract

Complex regional pain syndrome is a clinical condition that features a group of typical symptoms, including spontaneous pain, edema, tenderness, swelling of an extremity along with varying degrees of sweating, warmth and/or coolness, flushing, discoloration, and shiny skin. A 12-year-old female patient referred to the department of pediatrics with complaints of swelling, pain, reddening, and movement difficulty in her right hand. Her attacks repeated 3 times. Cervical stellate ganglion blockage relieved symptoms immediately at the last attack.
