Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a challenging condition marked by intense and often longlasting pain, typically occurring in a limb following an injury. Traditional treatment approaches might not always offer significant pain relief, prompting the investigation of advanced treatments like Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS). This review delves into the significance of SCS therapy for CRPS, focusing on the utilization of different waveforms and paradigms in its management. Spinal Cord Stimulation is a treatment modality that utilizes a medical device to send electrical impulses to the spinal cord, aiming to alter pain signals and provide relief. For patients with CRPS, this therapy has become a focus of interest due to its ability to reduce pain and enhance overall quality of life, particularly in cases where other interventions have proven ineffective.
