How Spinal Injuries Occur

The majority of spinal cord injuries result from car accidents, truck accidents, workplace accidents, and slip and fall accidents. Other common causes of spinal cord injuries include gunshot wounds, knife wounds, and sporting accidents.

Your spinal cord is made up of a bundle of nerves that run from your brain and down your back. An injury to your spinal cord can result in a loss of feeling to total paralysis below the site of the injury.

 

Complications of Spinal Cord Injuries

Even in cases of less severe spinal cord injuries, complications such as pain and stinging in the spinal cord may occur.

Other possible complications include loss of feeling, loss of movement, uncontrollable reflexes, spasms, breathing difficulty, and loss of bladder and bowel control.

In other words, a spinal cord injury can severely inhibit your ability to lead a normal life, and often recovery takes months or years of rehabilitation and medical treatment. These treatments can cause be extraordinarily expensive.

Victims of spinal cord injury may also have a shorter life span and a greater number of serious health problems than they otherwise would have had.

If you or a member of your family has suffered a spinal cord injury due to the negligence, carelessness, or recklessness of another party, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, disability, pain and suffering, and other losses related to your injury.
