Spinal Cord Injuries
Few injuries are as grave as those that affect the spinal cord. The main nerve junction in the body is protected by a strong covering of bones called vertebrae. These bones are some of the strongest bones in the body, but they cannot protect the spinal cord against all trauma. Even slight injuries such as whiplash or slipped discs can cause agonizing pain long after an accident. Unfortunately, spinal cord injuries rarely heal completely, significantly reducing the quality of life for many victims.
Perhaps the worst spinal cord injuries involve paralysis or total loss of mobility. If the spinal cord is severed completely, the unfortunate victim will usually become paralyzed below the spot of the injury, resulting in either paraplegia or quadriplegia. These types of injuries permanently affect not only the lives of their victims, but also the family and friends who must care for the injured.
