Paraplegia is the loss of muscle function in the lower half of the body, including both legs. It is rare as there are fewer than 200,000 US cases per year. Though treatment can help, this condition sadly cannot be cured. It requires a medical diagnosis, where lab tests or imaging are performed. This is a chronic condition that can last for years or be lifelong. It also is a critical injury that needs emergency care. Paraplegia can occur after a spinal cord injury. It’s caused by damage to the vertebrae, ligaments, or disks of the spinal column. Rehabilitation, medications, and medical devices allow many people with spinal cord injuries to lead productive, independent lives. Such a devastating injury may be the result of a negligent act, and may entitle the victim and their loved ones to recover for various damages, including lost income, medical costs, and pain and suffering.
