Spinal Cord Injury
A Spinal Cord Injury can be termed as damage to the spinal cord due to a mishap or a trauma, which results in a loss of function such as mobility or feeling (paralysis). Victims of spinal cord injury usually lose their motor skills due to desensitization and loss of muscle control. Because the spinal cord is a very important organ of our central nervous system that keeps involuntary bodily functions such as blood pressure, temperature regulation, heart beat and breathing rate, the effects of a spinal cord injury can be very catastrophic.
Depending on the type and level of the injury, its effects can greatly affect the quality of life of the victim. Usually the person who suffers form a spinal cord injury has a hard time undergoing and accepting drastic changes in his life which is very different from the life he had before the accident took place.
Medications and rehabilitation costs of spinal cord injury can prove to be very expensive, which in turn, aggravates the emotional and economical turmoil of the victim and his family. The victim can also experience further complications brought by the injury itself like complete paralysis, and in worse cases, instantaneous death during medication and rehab. In a nutshell, the victim becomes very vulnerable and loses control of his body functions and his life.
