Acts of violence are the most common cause of spinal cord injury that results in paralysis aside from motor vehicle accidents and fall. The two most prevalent acts of violence that affect the spinal cord and back are stabbings and gun shot wounds. Acts of violence lead to tearing, crushing or severing of the spinal cord which can lead to complete spinal cord injury or incomplete spinal cord injury. According to the National Spinal Cord Injury Association Resource Center, acts of violence caused 24% of all spinal cord injuries in the United States between 1995 and 1998.
