Texas Spinal Cord Injury Attorneys Spinal cord injury can happen to anyone in any number of ways. Young males between the ages of 16 and 30 are the most common victims. Males of all ages make up the majority of spinal cord injuries. Spinal cord injury is devastating and is often progressive in nature. It is possible to have spinal cord damage and not be immediately aware of that fact. As swelling and inflammation increase so does the damage to the spinal cord. Injuries to the head, neck and back may ultimately result in spinal cord injury. The immediate symptoms can range from mild, vague sensory changes to paralysis.

Nerve impulses travel from your spinal cord throughout the rest of your body. If the spinal cord is damaged, the nerve impulses do not have a clear conduit to the rest of the body.
