(512) 910-2000One of the most severe consequences of traumatic injury involves spinal cord injuries. These injuries usually result in the loss of mobility and can cause permanent physical disabilities, not to mention, emotional disabilities. Spinal cord injuries decrease the quality of life through chronic pain and a loss of movement.
Minor injuries affect daily living and major injuries can cause paralysis or even death. As a result, extensive medical care is necessary for recovery, even though full recovery may not be possible.
Spinal cord injury treatments can be very costly and in some cases, the victim may not be able to return to work in their occupation. Spinal Cord Injuries are very difficult to come out unscathed.
Spinal cord injuries have a long-lasting impact on every aspect of the victim’s life. From doing simple everyday activities to building relationships with others, the victim’s daily life will forever be changed.
According to Mayo Clinic, Spinal Cord Injury can make it seem like every aspect of your life has been affected. You might feel shifts in your mental state, emotionally and socially.
Having control of your limbs after a very serious injury depends on two things. The location of the damage along the spinal cord, and the severity of the impact along the Spinal Cord.
How serious the injury is often referred to as “The completeness” of the injury. For example, if someone was severely hurt at the spinal cord, lost all feeling, and ability to control movement below the injured point, that would be considered a Complete Injury. If some motor function is still prevalent, the name of the Injury is called Incomplete. There are many different kinds of Incomplete Injury.
There are many signs of a Spinal Injury, but it is always important to visit a physician for a proper diagnosis. Some of the most common Spinal Injury Emergency symptoms are:
Spinal Cord injury is still very common, and on the rise for the elderly population of Austin.
The Spine is divided up into three collections of Vertebra. The Cervical Spine is the thinnest part of the spine, and it is located near the back of the neck. Up next is the Thoracic Spine section. This part of the spine contains 12 vertebrae, unlike the previous 7. It is the thickest part of the Spine, and right after comes the Lumbar Section. The lumbar is the lowest part of the spine and is connected to the Pelvis.

Trent Kelly has been very supportive and very helpful throughout my case. He has been very realistic from day one. He never changed his position. He really cares for you and fights for your case to the best of his ability. Honestly, he got my case resolved for more than I expected. I once had a lawyer for the same case. After about 8 months he decided not to fight for it. But Trent Kelly took the case anyway and successfully fought for it!
