Albuquerque, New Mexico Spinal Cord Injury Lawyers
In the course of one day, most people will complete simple, ordinary tasks by making use of their arms, legs, backs, and heads. Basic motor functioning is controlled by the spinal cord; without it these simple tasks would be impossible. Because of this, spinal cord injuries as well as back and neck injuries are very serious and need immediate medical attention.
Causes and Effects of Spinal Cord Injuries
When an individual is involved in an accident of any kind—car, truck, motorcycle, construction, falls, medical malpractice, unsafe premises, gun shot wounds, etc.—that person may have severe injuries resulting from the trauma experienced. Serious injuries to the spinal cord, back, and neck can affect every part of the body.
After a serious accident, the effects of a spinal cord injury are generally permanent and life-changing. Depending on the location of the injury, victims can experience a variety of symptoms including, but not limited to:
- Paraplegia
- Quadriplegia
- Poor coordination
- Weakness
- Tingling, numbness, loss of sensation
- Breathing difficulties
- Loss of bowel or bladder control
- Spasms
- Blood pressure fluctuation
