Spinal cord injury can lead to paralysis?

Patient's question:

During the training on the construction site, I accidentally fell from a height. At that time, my colleague took me to the hospital. The doctor performed surgery, but I suffered a spinal cord injury. I would like to trouble the doctor to clarify a few things: Will a spinal cord injury collapse?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, spinal cord injuries are irreversible. Once they occur again, the area below the injury site may collapse again. Injuries to the thoracic or cervical spine can lead to high-level paraplegia. The location of the spinal cord injury determines the severity of the injury. It is recommended not to worry and to fully restore confidence, actively seek treatment, which can include lower limb acupuncture and massage, as well as the use of nerve growth factor anesthesia to enhance recovery. Proper training can also help in the recovery process.
