What is a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)?

A spinal cord injury (also known as SCI) refers to the harm sustained by the spinal cord at any location or to the nerves located at the spinal canal’s end. This damage can have lasting consequences on various aspects of bodily functions, including sensations, strength and motor abilities. Spinal cord injuries can significantly affect an individual’s life.

Various neurological disorders or an injury leading to the fracture of your vertebrae have the potential to harm your spinal cord. When the spinal cord sustains damage, it essentially blocks the neural highway, preventing nerve impulses from passing through. This condition can lead to paralysis, causing a loss of both mobility and sensation below the point of injury. Not all spinal cord injuries cause complete paralysis.

Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries

Spinal cord injuries can occur due to:

• Motor vehicle collisions
• Slip and fall accident
• Sports injuries
• Acts of violence
