does not provide medical or legal advice. Our goal is to provide
legal resources for injured individuals and attorneys.
Spinal Cord Injuries may be
caused by auto accidents, acts
of violence, falls, sports
injuries, or other causes. Pain and suffering may be lifelong
and constant. Permanent disability may ensue.
The
spinal cord is a communicator between the brain and the
rest of the body. It consists of nerves and bones that extend
downward from the base of the brain. The nerves, which are
called vertebrae, filter through small openings between each bone.
These vertebrae provide what protection there is in the body for
this vital communications system. Injury or bleeding may cause
sudden compression of the spinal cord with following nerve damage.
Nerves are grouped into related types.
Toward the front of the body there are
motor nerves, which transmit
information to muscles. Toward the back and sides, there are
sensory nerves that transmit
information such as touch, position, pain, heat, and cold.
This is an extremely efficient system for the body, but when an
accident occurs to damage the spinal cord, this damage can deliver
life threatening and life altering blows to a victim.
Body
functions can be totally or partially destroyed in any part of the
body below the level of the injury and cause severe and constant
pain above the level of injury. For example, damage to the
thoracic (chest) area of the spine may cause leg weakness and may
affect bladder and bowel function. There are complications from
weakness and paralysis while the spinal cord is healing or being
treated.

involved in any injury include medical care and loss of income.
Spinal cord injuries particularly call for expert nursing care,
special beds to minimize pressure on the skin (such as a Stryker
frame), specialized neurological medical tests, neurosurgeon
attendance, and psychological counseling. Family members and close
friends also benefit from this counseling.
If you have
a spinal cord injury due to an accident, you may be entitled to
compensation and monetary damages. It is usually wise to hire your
own attorney to ensure that your interests are protected. Initial
consultations are often free. Legal advice can save you time,
trouble and money and can allow you to be compensated for your
misfortune.
