I'm dealing with a burning sensation all over my body and it feels like nerve pain, with pins and needles, and sometimes it feels like a heat wave inside. I've also got nerve pain in my jaw. I've been told I might have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome by one doctor in NZ, and a neurologist mentioned Central Pain Syndrome. I'm really concerned and a bit confused about these diagnoses. Could you explain what they mean and how they differ? Also, what can I do to manage or reduce these symptoms?

Approximately 80% of patients with CRPS type I achieve complete, spontaneous relief of signs and symptoms within 18 months; however, no diagnostic criteria have been shown to predict which patients will fall into this category. Some of the patients whose symptoms do not resolve spontaneously may still be cured by treatment. Of the patients who develop refractory CRPS type I, 50-80% have disability secondary to pain andor a limited range of motion. The main disabilities are limitations in their activities of daily living (ADL).

View allMy brother has swelling in his head due to a blood clot in his brain. One doctor recommended surgery to control the swelling, but another said medication would be enough. Right now, he seems physically fine but is very weak internally and has lost a lot of his memory he can't name simple objects like a fan or spoon and doesn't even remember the difference between singular and plural. The doctors say it's a case of forgetfulness. How long will his recovery take, and will he ever regain his memory like before?
Recovery time after a brain blood clot can be variable, ranging from months to even longer. While some individuals regain most of their memory and cognitive function, the extent of recovery depends on the location, size, and duration of the clot, as well as the individual's overall health and response to treatment. The memory loss your brother is experiencing, which may be described as forgetfulness, could be a symptom of temporary brain damage or a sign of ongoing brain function recovery
