Dallas Personal Injury Attorney
Spinal Cord Injury
The
spinal cord is an intricate system of nerves that sends signals from the
brain to the rest of the human body. These transmissions make it possible
for us to feel and move. When the spinal cord is severed or damaged, the
consequences can be devastating. Injuries to the spine often result in loss
of feeling in all or part of the body and even paralysis. Secondary effects
can be loss of bladder control, chronic pain, pulmonary complications and
ulcers. Aside from the physical effects, spinal cord injury victims may experience
emotional and psychological anguish due to their loss.
Car accidents claim the majority of spinal cord injuries, but simply falling down or getting hurt while playing a sport can cause this injury as well.
Because of the costs incurred with the treatment and rehabilitation of spinal cord injuries, victims and their families may experience unexpected financial stress. Surgeries, physical rehabilitation, hospitalization, and sometimes permanent medical treatment are very costly and often more than most can afford.
