What should be done for spinal cord injury with quadriplegia?

Patient's question:

Falling object from a height caused spinal cord injury to the neck, legs cannot move! Unable to urinate or defecate! Upper limbs can move but with weak strength! Head cannot be held upright for long! Unable to endure!

Doctor's answer:

This situation stems from my own spinal cord injury, which has a very slow recovery process. Therefore, in this case, a long-term gradual recovery process is necessary, and there is no way to rush it. Muscle recovery should be paralyzed to prevent joint, ligament, and nearby tendon adhesions, and to maintain the normal movement of limb joints. Exercise is a very good means of rehabilitation. It has a positive effect on promoting blood circulation and normal metabolism throughout the body and limbs, as well as restoring the function of the body and limbs. Accept the reality and face it correctly.
