Appointment prep
Prepare for a CRPS evaluation
Burning pain, color/temperature changes, and swelling after injury are often not recognized early. Medvo helps you document the Budapest criteria symptoms and request prompt specialist referral.
Symptoms patients describe
- · Severe burning or shooting pain out of proportion to injury
- · Skin color changes, temperature asymmetry, swelling, sweating changes
- · Allodynia (pain from light touch) and motor/trophic changes
Tests & referrals to request
Framed as evaluation — your clinician decides what is appropriate.
- · Referral to pain management or CRPS specialist
- · Triple-phase bone scan or autonomic testing if indicated
- · Early multidisciplinary pain management plan
If you've been dismissed
- · Pain dismissed as 'in your head' after trauma
- · No recognition of sympathetic signs
