Types of Injuries
Spinal cord injuries can be divided into two categories:
Complete spinal cord injuries occur when all communication below the injury site and the remainder of the body is severed. Complete spinal cord injuries will result in paralysis at or below the injury site. Partial recovery may be possible.
Incomplete spinal cord injuries happen when some degree of communication between the area below the accident site and the rest of the body remains. Incomplete spinal cord injury sufferers will generally retain some function below the injury site but may experience tingling, numbness, motor deficits, partial paralysis, and other symptoms.
Things to Note
The location of a spinal cord injury will have a large impact on its severity. The higher up the injury is located, the greater degree of impairment the patient will likely experience
