The spinal cord is one of the most essential components in our body structure. It houses part of the central nervous system (CNS), which aids us with our reflexes, sensory processing, and many more functions relevant to our daily life. The spinal cord also supports our neck and head as well as keeping us upright and straight as a whole. A spinal cord injury is when some damage or fracture to the spinal cord affects its structure and function, and it can be extremely debilitating and life-changing. This is because it can affect the CNS which is in charge of motor and sensory function.
Incomplete spinal cord injuries are injuries where there is still some remaining motor and/or sensory function below the point of injury. Survivors of this injury have a much higher chance of being able to walk again and making a better recovery than those with a complete spinal cord injury. The sooner that a patient seeks medical attention to get diagnosed for their injury, the better their chances are of recovering and recovering faster.
When a patient with an incomplete injury comes into the hospital to get diagnosed, the doctor will first ask a few questions about the accident that caused it and the location and severity of the pain. Then, they will likely conduct a brief physical examination to assess their perception of sensation and ability to move certain areas of the body. In order to pinpoint the location and type of damage that has occurred, the doctors will then order certain diagnostic tests to get a better look inside of the body. These diagnostic tests include CT scans, MRI scans, myelograms, X-rays, or others. After diagnosis, your doctor will be able to prescribe the best treatment options to make for the most efficient and safe recovery.
