	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/02/2018 answer text <p>Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) has been a recognised medical condition for over 150 years. It is a debilitating, painful condition in a limb, associated with sensory, motor, skin and bone abnormalities, and there is no cure. Although in some cases sufferers make gradual recovery, for others the condition is ongoing. A long-term condition (LTC) can be defined as a condition that cannot be cured but can be managed through the use of medication and/or therapy, and by that definition CRPS is an LTC.</p><p> </p><p>In terms of awareness, NHS Choices provides useful information and advice for the public on CRPS; its symptoms and causes and treatment. To support clinicians in diagnosing and managing the condition, guidance on CRPS is available from authoritative professional sources, including the Royal College of Physicians and the Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases, one of the leading centres in the United Kingdom for CRPS. More information on these CRPS resources can be found at the following links:</p><p> </p><p><a href="http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/complex-regional-pain-syndrome/" target="_blank">www.nhs.uk/conditions/complex-regional-pain-syndrome/</a></p><p><a href="http://www.rcplondon.ac.uk/guidelines-policy/pain-complex-regional-pain-syndrome" target="_blank">www.rcplondon.ac.uk/guidelines-policy/pain-complex-regional-pain-syndrome</a></p><p><a href="http://www.rnhrd.nhs.uk/page/79" target="_blank">www.rnhrd.nhs.uk/page/79</a></p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine grouped question UIN 126831 126836 question first answered 08/02/2018 17:23:20 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
