After an accident that hurts their spinal cord, people frequently suffer from long-term problems, pain, and even paralysis. By going to court against the person who caused your accident, your spinal cord injury attorney can get you monetary compensation for the damages and other losses. They’ll gather proof, talk with the insurance company of the person who hurt you, and maybe even file a legal complaint to secure your compensation.

Impacts Of Painful Spinal Injuries

Spinal cord injuries stop your brain from talking to your body parts, which means you have less control over your limbs. Injuries are called “complete” if you have no sensory or motor skills below the injury, or “incomplete” if you still have certain sensory or motor abilities below the injury.

People with spinal cord injuries all have at least one of the following problems:

• Loss of movement, such as in paraparesis or paralysis, where you can’t move at all or only in certain ways.
• Loss of senses, like being unable to sense cold, heat, or touch
• Spasms or overactive reflexes are signs of this.
• Lack of control over the bowels or bladder
• Pain or a stinging feeling caused by damage to nerve fibers
• Changes in ovulation, sexual function, and sensitivity
• Having trouble breathing, coughing, or getting phlegm out of the lungs

The effects of a spinal injury are, of course, much more than just physical or medical. Spinal cord accidents force people to learn how to live within the limits of their injury. They might lose their capacity to work and pay bills, endure much suffering and pain, and deal with many other terrible long-term effects.
