Complex regional pain syndrome, or CRPS, is a chronic pain condition that most often affects one of the limbs (arms, legs, hands, or feet). Commonly following injury or trauma to a limb, CRPS is believed to be caused by the damaging or malfunctioning of the peripheral and central nervous systems.

The central and peripheral nervous systems are composed of the brain and spinal cord. The central and peripheral nervous systems entail nerve signaling from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. There are several symptoms related to CRPS, and it is distinguished by prolonged or excessive pain, among other symptoms.

The main symptoms of CRPS include:

Dear Ada Icon,

Recently, parents of Ada school children were sent a message from school administrators about an uptick in positive Covid tests among Ada students. This message made it clear that the school system is taking precautions to make sure the schools are cleaned thoroughly, and to quarantine the students who have tested positive in their homes. Parents were also cautioned not to send their children to school if they show symptoms of COVID-19. All of this is so that other students do not become infected also. 

A 5th Quarter event for 6-12th graders has been scheduled after Ada High School home Varsity Football games. Activities will last until 11:00 p.m at Buckeye East, 123 E. Buckeye Ave.

The events will be coordinated by youth leaders at the Ada Campus of Delphos First Church, Nick and Amber Simon, with Matt and Katie Gossman, and Matt and Lacey Fisher 

Local sponsors will be donating food. For more information, call 419-558-1047.
