Accidents in Scranton, Wilkes-Barre & Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania

Paralysis may result from an accident that causes injury to the neck or spinal cord. The spinal cord is a bundle of nerves that carries messages and information from the brain throughout the body. If this is stretched, damaged or severed these messages will be interrupted or possibly stopped altogether.

A person may suffer from paraplegia (paralysis of the lower half of the body), quadriplegia (paralysis of all four limbs), paralysis of a single body part, or total paralysis. In addition to the loss of feeling in limbs a paralysis victim may suffer from the loss of control of critical bodily functions such as breathing, digestion and balance.
