[|Human|] my husband had surgery for a compression of the spinal cord 19th September 2011 he has been unable to walk or control bowel and bladder since then or feel surgery was level T7 he is getting back feeling in his lower back and some movement in his legs through therapy. they suspect he had an ischemia will he get back any more function?
[|AI|]  Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I would like to explain that these are good signs of recovery. Coming to this point, the best thing to do now is continued physiotherapy. It is the best treatment to gain function of his limbs. The damage to his spine is usually irreversible, but other regions of the spine can gain the function of the damaged regions. That is why I would recommend continue actively physiotherapy. We can not know how much he will gain from this, but he should try to make his best. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes,
