Well causes of CRPS are complicated. I personally believe anybody can get CRPS through an injury to a nerve or inflammation to a tendon/ligament that subsequently affects a nerve. However, I do believe some people are born with this disease, some are born more predisposed but maybe won't have manifestations and some develop the disease overtime. There isn't enough knowledge out there to fully understand the complexities. I've been sick my whole life and have had other diseases like osteochondritis dissecans. But I've also contracted things like meningitis and MERSA. So was I born with this disease? I don't think there is a clear answer as to why or how we get anything.
