If you are having problems with pain ONLY... You should be consulted to see a Pain Specialist. This is an anesthesiologist who has specialized in the treatment of pain. If one is not available, then next would be a neurologist (doctor of the nerves). If you have weakness ONLY, then you will most likely be consulted to a doctor of physical therapy (Physiatrist) who will establish a treatment to strengthen the weak muscles and perhaps order any devices such as braces, shoes, etc... For the "mixed bag" of pain & weakness, then a combination of the above would be the treatment team...

Why must caution be used when handling a person with possible spinal cord injury?

Any damage to the spinal cord is a bad thing. Depending on the location of the damage, the victim may lose the use of their legs, loss of the use of all four limbs, or even be damaged enough to interfere with normal breathing. Any time the spine itself is injured, that injury may produce sharp edges, which can cut localized tissue, cause swelling or internal bleeding that may in turn stop blood flow to the spinal cord, as well as nearly any potential trauma. As such, if you see potention for spinal cord injury, you need to prevent as much further movement at that site as is possible. Hence the caution in moving such a victim.

Why might your legs become numb while standing but the numbness goes away when you sit down?

The spinal column is under pressure when we stand--- it is similar to putting a book on top of your head. When we sit, the pressure is immediately reduced on the lower spine. The pressure on the spinal cord when standing up can produce symptoms if you have a problem with the spinal cord. For example, a partial or complete herniation of a spinal disk. You should see your doctor and likely get an MRI of your lower spine.


Is there a difference between the lengths of the male and female adult spinal cords?
