Spinal paralysis
This is the term used by doctors to describe a combination of symptoms that occur when the nerve cord in the spinal cord is severed. The location of the injury on the spine is decisive for its consequences: the body can no longer control limbs and organs whose innervation branches off from the spinal cord below the damaged area. Possible consequences range from partial paralysis of the limbs to complete loss of control over the rectum and bladder. Also called paraplegia or paraparesis.
