Abstract

Reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome is an ill-defined symptom complex with clinical manifestations of excessive pain, joint stiffness and soft tissue changes. It rarely manifests following burns. Diagnosis is usually made from clinical symptoms and ganglion block. Early diagnosis and institution of conservative management is required to control symptoms and disability.
