Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injuries are among the most common, and serious, injuries
that can arise from a motor vehicle accident or a serious fall. Spinal
cord injuries result from trauma to the spinal cord, which houses
most of the nerves that transmit signals to and from the brain. Accordingly,
when there is trauma to the spinal cord, as occurs in a car accident,
a serious sports injury, a construction site accidents or from a fall,
the result can be partial or total paralysis.
A spinal cord injury can be temporary or permanent depending upon
the extent of the injury. It also can cause partial or total paralysis
or disability. Often, serious spinal cord injuries produce paralysis
below the area where the injury occurred. In some cases, individuals
experience paralysis or impaired movement on one side of their body.
