The Spinal Cord is the thick column of nerve tissue that links the brain to most of the nerves.
The bundle of nerves that travels down through your vertebrae is called the spinal cord. It is a long, cylindrical structure that carries signals between the brain and the rest of the body, controlling movement and sensation.
The spinal cord is made up of nerve tissue. This is a thick bundle of neurons that runs through the spinal canal or the vertebral column. The vertebral column is the tower of vertebral bones typically called the "spine" by laymen. The spine is in fact the amalgamation of the two. In other words the spine is the vertebral column with the nervous spinal cord running through it.
Nerves vary in size. Nerves like the sciatic nerve are large while other are small. There are three types of nerves in the human body. Afferent, efferent, and mixed.
The large thick muscle located on either side of the lumbar vertebrae is called the erector spinae. Its main function is to extend and laterally flex the spine.
The thick cord that runs down the vertebrae is called the spinal cord. It is a vital part of the central nervous system, extending from the brainstem to the lower back, and is protected by the vertebral column. The spinal cord transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body and is responsible for reflex actions.

Thick nerves can indicate nerve damage or inflammation. This can result from conditions such as nerve compression, trauma, or certain health conditions like diabetes. It's important to consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.
The thick white band of nerves deep within the brain is called the corpus callosum. It connects the two hemispheres of the brain and allows them to communicate with each other.
