The spinal cord is a bundle of nerves that runs down the back and carries messages between the brain and the rest of the body. A spinal cord injury happens when this cord is damaged, often from a serious accident. Depending on where and how badly the cord is hurt, it can affect movement, feeling, and other body functions below the injured area.
Signs depend on the location and severity of the injury. They may include loss of movement or feeling, weakness, trouble with balance, or changes in bladder and bowel control. Some injuries are “complete,” meaning little or no signal passes below the injury, while others are “incomplete,” leaving some function.
