Spinal Cord Injury Lawsuit Help
The spinal cord consists of a bundle of nerves running from the base of the brain down the middle of the back. Spinal cord injuries are generally the result of a traumatic blow to the spine which dislocates or fractures vertebrae. In most cases, these injuries do not completely sever the spinal cord but instead destroy the nerve endings that carry signals between the brain and the body along the spinal cord.
When this happens, there may be a loss of sensation and movement. Paralysis of all four limbs (quadriplegia) or paralysis of the lower half of the body (paraplegia) may result from a spinal cord injury. Victims of these injuries tend to have shortened life spans. Other health problems may include bladder and bowel complications, inability to regulate blood pressure, decreased control of body temperature, chronic pain, and increased susceptibility to respiratory disease.
