The experienced spinal cord injury lawyers at Vancouver Personal Injury Lawyer Group know from experience that it’s common for victims to feel overwhelmed and unsure of the future.

SCI victims are often left partially or completely paralyzed. Some of the types of paralysis a SCI victim may experience, include:

Tetraplegia

Tetraplegia or quadriplegia as it was commonly referred to, is complete loss of movement and sensation of all four limbs and torso. As a result of paralysis from the neck down, most SCI victims experience loss or impairment of sexual functioning, digestion, breathing, and bowel and bladder function.

Paraplegia

Paraplegia is complete or partial loss of movement and sensation of the legs and torso. The level at which the torso if affected depends on the location of the injury. Most paraplegics lose the ability to control bowel and bladder functions, and experience sexual dysfunction.

Central Cord Syndrome

Central cord syndrome usually affects movement and sensation of the arms. Patients suffering from central cord syndrome have full use of their legs, but experience paralysis of the upper body and arms. Central cord syndrome is the most common injury of all incomplete SCI syndromes.
