Spine trauma may come from injuries to the vertebrae, ligaments or disks of the spinal column. It can be a result of a sudden, traumatic blow to your spine that fractures, dislocates, crushes or compresses one or more of your vertebrae.

A sharp object wound can also penetrate and cut your spinal cord. Over a period of time, additional damage can occur because of bleeding, swelling, inflammation or fluid accumulation in and around your spinal cord.

The seriousness of injury is divided into two categories: Complete: Complete loss of ability of motor movements, sensation and reflex activity Incomplete: Little bit of sensation and reflex activity.
