Nerves that carry impulses from your brain and spinal cord to your muscles, glands and other organs. Nerves located in the skin and other sensory organs. These nerves receive stimuli and send impulses to your spinal cord and brain. After an Injury A spinal cord injury can cause permanent paralysis, which is an inability to move a part of your body because of nerve or muscle damage. Paralyzed from the neck down, quadriplegics lose some or all function of their arms or legs.
Paraplegics suffer permanent loss of leg movement and lower-body function.
It's a fact. Once your spinal cord is damaged, it can never be fixed. And once your brain is injured and your brain cells are damaged, they can't be fixed either. It's not like breaking an arm or a leg. Those body parts can heal.
