Injury of the Spine

Spinal cord injury is caused by spinal cord injury and causes complete or incomplete paralysis. Complete spinal cord injury means that the spinal cord is completely severed and people can no longer walk. Incomplete spinal cord injury means that the spinal cord is still intact, but it does not cross the spinal cord due to trauma from foreign bodies and bones. Victims of incomplete spinal cord injuries have small hope of walking again.

Spinal cord injury is not always obvious. Head and neck fractures, pelvic fractures, penetrating damage to the spinal area, or high altitude injuries can cause concerns about unstable spine. Because significant movement in the neck or back may cause further injuries, attention should be paid to those who may be injured in the spine before conducting spinal imaging at the emergency center or trauma center . At the accident site, emergency personnel fix the head and neck, prevent movement, place a hard collar around the neck, and carefully place the person on a hard backboard to prevent damage to the spine. You can calmly relax and prevent exercise. Snorkel can be inserted if high cervical spinal cord and individual injury is at risk of breathing stoppage

Brown-Sequard syndrome is a rare spinal disease caused by damage on one side of the spinal cord. It is usually caused by spinal cord injury on the neck and back. In many cases it is a kind of puncture wound to damage the spine to the neck or back. Below the level of injury on the injured side, exercise and certain kinds of sensation are lost. As these passages pass through the opposite side immediately after entering the spinal cord, pain on the side of the body opposite to the injury and decrease in body temperature

Physical damage to the spinal cord can lead to loss of sensation and exercise. If spinal cord injury does not cause more severe symptoms than swelling, symptoms may be transient, but loss of function is usually permanent if spinal nerve fibers are actually destroyed. Experimental studies have shown that spinal nerve fibers attempt to regenerate like nerve fibers, but in the spinal cord tissue destruction usually creates scar tissue that can not penetrate by regenerating nerves.

Spinal cord injury is the result of trauma to the peripheral nerve, bone and tissue of the spine. This damage is not usually caused by accidents such as falls or car accidents, it is not due to disease. Symptoms vary greatly as spinal cord injuries can have various causes. However, most spinal cord injuries result in some loss of function. The specific symptoms vary depending on the site of injury to the spine, but the most common symptoms are pain and numbness. Spinal cord injury can also cause problems in other parts of the body. For example, if you hurt the center of the spine, the function may be lost in the lower part.
