Hi @mlewis24, Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Having kicked a few things in my younger days I completely understand. I'm sorry that you are having to deal with CRPS as a result of the injury. There is another discussion that you may want to join in and meet other members discussing CRPS and read what they have shared.

@rsnowflake, @mam14, @lorirenee1, @faithwalker007, @burningfeetinphoenix and @jenniferhunter may have some thoughts on the injury and CRPS.
Did your doctor mention any possibility of a pinched or damage nerve in the foot or ankle?
There is another discussion which may be worth reading as a possible treatment or therapy -- Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) for treating compression and pain: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/

Thank you so much for the resources and insight. I haven't heard anything about a pinched nerve but because my brain adapted to the pain in my body that occurred from the injury, it has to be rewired to forget the source of pain. However, the pain sight is completely real. It's so confusing! I had never heard of CRPS until I was diagnosed and I read that it is an under diagnosed condition. To have people to chat with about it really does help, because what works for someone else might work for me.
