This project will contribute essential knowledge about what causes some people to develop Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). CRPS affects approximately 5% of people following a fracture but can also occur with minimal injury. Sufferers experience gradually worsening levels of pain, skin discolouration, poor quality of life, and often severe depression. We will investigate the most likely cause of CRPS, which is thought to be an abnormal inflammatory reaction following injury.

这个项目将有助于了解是什么原因导致一些人发展复杂的区域疼痛综合征（CRPS）的基本知识。CRPS影响大约5%的骨折后的人，但也可能发生轻微损伤。患者经历逐渐恶化的疼痛，皮肤变色，生活质量差，往往严重抑郁症。我们将研究CRPS最可能的原因，CRPS被认为是损伤后的异常炎症反应。
