The spinal cord is in extremely important part of the human central nervous system that transmits information from the body to the brain and vice versa. The interlocking bones of the spine called vertebrae protect the spinal cord from damage by encasing the sensitive nerve bundles within the bone. If the spine suffers a sudden, traumatic blow however, the result can be a devastating injury to the spinal cord such as damage or even severing of the spinal nerves.
This can result in severe disability and problems for the rest of the body's functioning including loss of feeling, loss of bladder control, loss of sexual function, loss of range of motion, and partial or total paralysis from the point of injury down to the rest of the body. If you have suffered a spinal cord injury you should contact a

There are many different possible causes of spinal cord injuries, almost all of which involves sudden or violent blows or contact to the spine or back such as in a car accident, construction accident or

medical malpractice, or when a doctor is negligent or careless in their medical treatment duties.
