Causes of Spinal Injuries
Spinal injuries can result from a variety of causes, including traumatic events and medical conditions. Trauma-induced spinal injuries often stem from automobile accidents, falls, sports-related accidents, and acts of violence. These injuries can lead to fractures, dislocations, and compressions of the vertebrae, which can in turn damage the spinal cord. Non-traumatic spinal injuries may arise from conditions like tumors, infections, or degenerative diseases, which can gradually affect the integrity of the spinal cord and its surrounding structures.
Types of Spinal Injuries
Spinal injuries are categorized based on their severity and impact on bodily function. Incomplete spinal cord injuries result in partial loss of sensory and motor function below the injury site, while complete injuries lead to the total loss of sensation and movement. Paraplegia refers to the paralysis of the lower body, while tetraplegia (or quadriplegia) affects both the upper and lower limbs.
The level of the injury on the spinal cord determines which body parts are affected. Cervical injuries impact the neck and upper limbs, thoracic injuries affect the chest and abdominal muscles, and lumbar injuries influence the lower limbs and some lower body functions.
Rehabilitation and Treatment
Rehabilitation plays a pivotal role in enhancing the quality of life for individuals with spinal injuries. The rehabilitation process is tailored to each patient's specific needs and abilities. Physical therapy aims to improve mobility, strength, and coordination, while occupational therapy focuses on relearning daily tasks and routines.
Assistive devices like wheelchairs and braces can help those who were injured regain independence. Additionally, counseling and support groups are often beneficial to address the emotional challenges that accompany these injuries.

I would definitely hire Jared again in the future. Thank you Mr. Brankamp.
Mr. Brankamp turned a very scary, unknown legal matter into a situation we could calmly navigate through. He was polite but frank, fact finding yet empathetic. He really made us feel like he had our daughter's best interest. Even during a pandemic when we could not meet face to face, he was easy to communicate with and always kept us in the loop on what was happening. I would definitely hire Jared again in the future. Thank you Mr. Brankamp.
