Hello,
I have studied your case.
CRPS usually follows trauma or nerve damage,did he had such kind of injury.
If doctors are not getting diagnosis then PET scan may help in locating origin of lesion if malignanacy is suspected.
CRPS usually resolves with amitryptillin, calcium channel blockers and if required sympathetic block.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
