Common Causes of Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
When someone suffers a head injury, they likely did some damage to the spinal cord as well. The same is usually true in reverse. These two types of injuries can both be extremely painful and may result in brain damage, memory loss, paralysis, paraplegia, loss of fertility, and several other life-altering issues. Brain injuries often occur when the head is struck or suffers some type of great impact. Likewise, spinal injuries are usually the result of some damage inflicted to the head. An impact to the head can cause the body to twist unnaturally, or might cause the neck to pinch, damaging vertebra, nerves, or muscles.
Common causes of head and spinal injuries include:
- Sports and recreational injuries
- An assault or other act of violence
- Slip and fall accidents
- Motor vehicle accidents
