Abstract
A plea is made for the early recognition of the possible development of painful conditions affecting peripheral nerves, since it is believed that the experience of our institution, which is detailed here, confirms that while rehabilitation programmes are of benefit to the patient, successful therapy depends upon prompt institution of prophylactic measures to prevent sensitization to sympathetic outflow. Patients are encouraged to use their hands, and it is considered important that they would understand that their complaints arise from a genuine organic condition.
