Immediate Impact of Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries occur when the spine sustains damage during a crash, affecting the body’s ability to send signals between the brain and the rest of the body. The severity of the injury depends on the location and extent of the damage. Common types of spinal cord injuries include:
- Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury: Partial loss of movement and sensation below the injury site. Some motor function or feeling may remain.
- Complete Spinal Cord Injury: Total loss of motor function and sensation below the injury site, leading to paralysis.
- Cervical Spine Injuries: Injuries to the neck area can result in quadriplegia, affecting all four limbs and requiring lifelong medical support.
- Thoracic & Lumbar Spine Injuries: Damage to the middle or lower back can lead to paraplegia, impacting mobility and independence.
Long-Term Consequences of Spinal Cord Injuries
The effects of a spinal cord injury can be permanent, requiring ongoing medical treatment and lifestyle adjustments. Some of the most common long-term consequences include:
- Paralysis & Mobility Challenges: Many spinal cord injury victims require wheelchairs, assistive devices, or home modifications.
- Chronic Pain & Muscle Spasms: Damage to the spine often leads to persistent pain and involuntary muscle contractions.
- Loss of Bladder & Bowel Control: Many spinal injury victims require lifelong management of bodily functions.
- Respiratory & Cardiovascular Issues: Severe injuries can lead to breathing difficulties, blood pressure instability, and heart complications.
- Emotional & Psychological Impact: Depression, anxiety, and PTSD are common after a life-changing injury.
