Common Symptoms of Spinal Cord Injury

Recognizing symptoms early leads to better outcomes. Look out for:

  • Complete or partial loss of movement (paralysis)
  • Loss of or severely altered sensation
  • Loss of bowel or bladder control
  • Exaggerated reflex activities or sudden spasms

Advanced Diagnostic Technologies

Accurate diagnosis is crucial. We bring unparalleled precision to diagnosing neurological conditions using modern technologies.

  • Urgent MRI Spine

    Pinpoints the exact location of severe spinal cord compression or bleeding within hours of injury.

  • Emergency CT Scan

    A rapid check for severe bone fractures or massive abnormalities crushing the spinal cord.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Spinal Cord Injury treatments at Raj Hospital

What is the critical 'Golden Hour' in spinal injuries?

The first few hours after severe trauma are vital. Rapid medical intervention massively reduces immense spinal cord swelling and secondary cellular death, dramatically improving chances of functional recovery.

Is complete paralysis always permanent?

If an injury completely severs the spinal cord, paralysis is generally permanent. However, severe 'incomplete' injuries routinely allow patients to regain critical functional mobility over months of rehabilitation.

What comprises dedicated SCI rehabilitation?

It consistently includes daily rigorous active physical therapies safely targeting core muscle strength, robust joint flexibility, and adaptive strategies for managing optimal long-term independence.

Can stem cell therapy completely cure severe SCI?

Currently, clinical stem cell therapy remains largely experimental and is not a guaranteed or standardized medical cure.

How does SCI impact bladder control?

Spinal injuries consistently disrupt the essential communication between the brain and the bladder, requiring specific urological management.
