Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Lawyers in Long Beach, California

Complex regional pain syndrome, or CRPS for short, is a painful, chronic nerve condition that almost always affects the limbs and can be very difficult to diagnose. Doctors believe that CRPS is the result of damage to the peripheral and central nervous systems. CRPS will generally “flare up,” or become something that you notice, after you suffer from some sort of a traumatic injury.

CRPS impacts the way that pain signals travel between your brain and the rest of your body. To put it in very simple terms, CRPS makes your brain think that a certain part of your body (such as your knee) is still injured when it isn’t. This means that you’ll still experience the pain of your injury long after it has actually healed.

For a more detailed explanation about what CRPS and how it can affect you or a loved one, please see our CRPS informational page.

What causes CRPS?

CRPS isn’t something that just happens out of the blue. According to medical professionals, CRPS is typically triggered by a history of traumatic injury that is generally limited to a particular area of the body. A broken arm, for example, can lead to a flare up of CRPS. Even minor injuries, however, such as cuts, scrapes, and abrasions could lead to CRPS. Sometimes, it’s hard to know what really caused your CRPS because it can be triggered by so many different things.

The May Firm often sees CRPS cases arising out of some sort of traumatic personal injury accident, such as a car accident or a slip and fall. In Long Beach in particular, we are representing more and more clients who are suffering from CRPS after being involved in an auto accident or being bitten by a dog.

CRPS is no joke!

Once triggered, CRPS is a life-long ailment that can leave sufferers in a world of pain. The attorneys at The May Firm have experience connecting CRPS to a personal injury accident – it isn’t just a coincidence that you developed CRPS immediately after being hit by a car! You should not still be having difficulty walking a year after your broken toes have healed or picking up your three-year-old nine months after your fractured forearm was taken out of its cast.

As if chronic pain isn’t bad enough, CRPS can potentially lead to long-term disability. If left untreated, CRPS can lead to muscle dystrophy and even complete immobilization. You may also experience a loss of dexterity.

CRPS and Long Beach

Although CRPS can have many causes, many of The May Firm’s clients become symptomatic after they have been involved in a personal injury accident. Long Beach is a hotbed for car, truck, and motorcycle accidents due, in large part, to the fact that it is such a big city with so many people. Unfortunately, a number of our clients who suffered one of these accidents now also suffer from chronic pain due to CRPS. Others have experienced a CRPS trigger after taking a serious spill from a bicycle while trying to avoid a negligently driven car or an oblivious pedestrian.

Fortunately, The May Firm has resources for our Long Beach CRPS clients. We are able to put you in touch with physical therapists and physicians who can prescribe medications to help ease your CRPS symptoms. We want to make sure that you are connected to the long-term resources that you’ll need to help manage this life-long problem.

Often wrongful blame is placed on the rider in a multi-vehicle collision due to the increased risk that comes with riding a motorcycle. Insurance companies are reluctant to side with the motorcyclist and oftentimes will attempt to place the full or partial blame on them. Don’t accept that blame and the legal repercussions that come with it.

Call (866) 619-6679 to schedule a free consultation with our award-winning motorcycle accident lawyers. We’ll help determine the viability of your case based on your testimony and help you determine the best way to proceed. Working on a contingency fee means our lawyers are only compensated when your case or settlement is won, and our extensive experience and case history allow us to settle most claims out of court, giving you a faster resolution to your case and allowing you to focus on your recovery process.
