The most painful disease known to man. According to the McGill Pain Scale, RSD also known as CRPS, ranks higher than childbirth and cancer in pain. Nicknamed the "suicide disease", it is a progressive disorder that develops most often after surgery or a simple injury such as a broken bone. The sympathetic nervous system freaks out, and the limb does not heal correctly. The person is left with debilitating burning pain. The disease can spread to other limbs, and to the internal organs once central sensitization occurs. All body systems are affected including bones, skin, blood vessels, etc.
Little is being done in terms of finding a cure or better treatment. Current treatment options suck and include Stellate Ganglion Blocks, Lumbar Sympathetic Blocks, epidurals, Ketamine infusions, Neurostimulation, Intrathecal Pumps, Calmare Therapy, & Lots of Medication.
Most people describe this condition as 'Hell" as you slowly lose function, independence, and live in very severe pain 24/7.

It happens when one side/the affected limb, etc., can't take the bruises, bumps (the beating), anymore, and instead of pain going away, it keeps repeating itself. The result of numbness, tingling pain, stiffness, tremors (shaking of the limb), color changes in the skin, temerature changes in the affected limb, and more.
It can also cause insomnia, migranes, nausia, etc.
To cut it short:
A pain in the ass.
