• Loss of motor control in arms and legs
• Loss of bowel and bladder control

Spinal cord injuries usually involve swelling of the spinal cord, which can subside and leave the victim with regained function months or years after the injury. However, full functioning is rarely recovered. Most victims of spinal cord injuries require years of treatment and a lifetime of care. There is no cure for these injuries.
