unfortunately there is no cure for RSD. I have had it for 6 yrs and completely understand his pain. there isent alot they can do, they will feed you full of things like you need to try biofeed back and PT which i personally dont think will help. The PT will hurt him worse in my own opinion.I am sorry to hear of all your trouble and will prayer for him as it is extremely painful
