Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries are serious conditions where damage to the spinal cord impairs function. They can result in loss of mobility, sensation, and autonomic regulation below the injury site. Causes range from trauma to disease. Treatment focuses on preventing further injury, managing symptoms, and rehabilitation for maximising independence.
