What Causes Chronic Pain In A Patient With Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy?

Hello. My 37 y/o daughter has been diagnosed with RSD since 2002 & she lives with chronic pain. I am thinking which I may be wrong but she needs to be seen by a Pain Management Doctor that specializes in treatment for RSD. I need someone that is proactive in treatment for her. Thank you for taking the time for her. Karen, Mother of the Patient
