Some spinal cord injuries can be catastrophic, resulting in severe disabilities. Herniated discs , injections, physical therapy and surgery are some of the results of spine injuries. These injuries can lead to paralysis and permanent disability, such as walking or using a wheelchair. These health issues are not only unpleasant to live with but can also increase your need for at-home and hospital care, as well as medical prescriptions. They can also impact your work and family life.Â
In various situations, spinal cord injuries affect thousands of people. Spinal cord injuries are any damage to the spine or nerves, and these can lead to long-term consequences like the loss of physical strength, decreased sensation,radiating pain, loss of control of bladder function, and depletion in muscle strength. While research is ongoing, most spinal cord injury victims will experience a long and challenging recovery.
Millions of Americans suffer from spinal cord injuries that affect their lives. Injuries can vary from minor bruises to severe tears in the spine. A slight bruise may temporarily affect the victim’s ability to move, but severe injuries can cause permanent movement problems. Severe damage to the spinal cord can cause paralysis in the lower and upper body. Here are the injuries to different parts and regions of the spine. In some spinal injuries, it is a surgical emergency to remove the disc that is encroaching on the spine.
Your spinal column is constructed with many vertebrae bones located in the neck and back and the tailbone. Disc structures link the vertebrae. If one or more discs rupture or fracture, it can cause severe damage to your spinal cord.
The neural arch is connected to both sides of the vertebrae and moves along with the vertebra. The construction of the spinal cord means that any impact on the vertebra will also directly affect the neural arch. You may also be at risk of damaging other parts of your spinal cord if you are in an accident. Your surgeon will inform you about the extent of any damage to your spine.

Our personal injuries team has represented clients in all kinds of spinal cord injury accidents. Some of the common accidents are:
Your insurance adjuster wants you to believe they are a friend who will work in your best interest, and they will want you to think they’re focused on getting the most money possible for you. The adjuster’s job is to limit the amount of money they pay for your injury.
The best defense against your insurance adjuster and company is to let your experienced personal injury attorney do the talking. Please do not accept the adjuster’s calls, do not become friends with them, do not share any facts or feeling about the crash or your injuries, and finally, do not sign anything!
Before you contact your insurance adjuster, contact attorney Gloria Seidule at 772-287-1220.

Although research for a cure to spinal cord injury is encouraging, there is no proven way to fully restore function following spinal cord injury. This does not mean there is no chance for a recovery of function. There is almost always hope for some improvement after spinal cord injuries, but there are no guarantees.
