Intact endogenous pain inhibition in complex regional pain syndrome type 1
Our results indicate that in individuals with chronic CRPS type 1, endogenous pain inhibition is intact and comparable with healthy individuals. Therefore, pathomechanisms underlying chronic CRPS are likely related to increased pain facilitatory rather than impaired inhibitory processes.
