Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to compare thermal camera Forward Looking InfraRed FLIR images before and after spinal cord stimulation to evaluate the difference in sympathetic activity of the affected limb in patients with complex regional pain syndrome CRPS The main questions it aims to answer are

Question 1 Can Infrared FLIR imaging be used to monitor the sympatholytic activity caused by Spinal Cord Stimulation SCS in patients with CRPS

Question 2 Is there any correlation between the quantification of sympatholytic activity produced by Spinal Cord Stimulation SCS and measured by FLIR imaging with the outcome measures in patients with CRPS Outcome measures include pain NRS CRPS Severity Score CSS Quality of Life SF-36 and neuropathic pain score painDETECT

Participants will have an image of their feet taken perpendicularly with a 1-inch space from all four sides using a FLIR T420 or T62101 camera with 320240 resolution

Participants will also complete questionnaires about the average pain CRPS severity quality of life and neuropathic pain
Detailed Description: Patients with CRPS often present with sympathetic dysfunction and peripheral vasomotor disturbances Spinal Cord Stimulation SCS may have a sympatholytic effect with improved microcirculation and regional blood flow This research proposal aims to investigate the potential use of Forward Looking Infrared FLIR imaging to monitor whether the sympatholytic effect is enhanced by using SCS in CRPS patients The goal of this observational study is to compare thermal camera Forward Looking InfraRed FLIR images before and after spinal cord stimulation to evaluate the difference in sympathetic activity of the affected limb in patients with complex regional pain syndrome CRPS The main questions it aims to answer are
