Spinal Cord Injury

What is spinal cord injury?

A spinal cord injury (SCI) occurs when there is damage to the spinal cord, either from trauma, disease, or degeneration. This can lead to partial or complete loss of sensation, movement, and bodily functions below the site of the injury. The severity depends on the location and extent of the damage, ranging from temporary issues to permanent paralysis, often categorized as paraplegia or quadriplegia. SCIs disrupt the communication between the brain and body, impacting motor control, bladder and bowel function, and even breathing in severe cases. Early intervention, rehabilitation, and physical therapy are crucial for maximizing recovery and quality of life. Research is ongoing to develop treatments, including stem cell therapy, to repair spinal cord damage and restore function. Call Now

A spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious condition resulting from damage to the spinal cord that can lead to partial or complete loss of motor function and sensation below the level of the injury. This damage can be caused by trauma, such as car accidents, falls, or sports injuries, or by non-traumatic causes like infections, tumors, or degenerative diseases. The severity and location of the injury determine the extent of impairment, ranging from mild weakness to full paralysis. In addition to movement and sensation loss, SCI can affect bladder and bowel control, breathing, and other bodily functions. Early medical intervention, rehabilitation, and physiotherapy are essential for maximizing recovery, improving independence, and enhancing quality of life for individuals with spinal cord injuries.
