Paraplegia typically results from damage to the spinal cord, which may be caused by trauma, diseases, or conditions affecting the nerves in the lower back (lumbar region) or thoracic region of the spinal cord. Specific nerves involved in paraplegia would depend on the location and extent of the spinal cord injury.
Yes, the anus has nerve endings that can cause arousal when stimulated. This is due to the proximity of the anus to other erogenous zones and the presence of sensory nerves in the area that can sense touch and pressure.
Motor neurons.
Neuritis of the laryngeal nerves is inflammation of the nerves that control the muscles of the larynx (voice box). This condition can cause symptoms such as hoarseness, difficulty speaking, and changes in voice quality. Treatment may involve rest, voice therapy, and in some cases, medication or surgery.
Nerves in the neck can affect the legs if there is compression or damage to the cervical nerves that control messages between the brain and the lower body. This can lead to symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs. It is important to seek medical evaluation to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of inherited neurological disorders that primarily affect the legs, causing progressive stiffness and weakness. It is characterized by spasticity and difficulty walking, and the severity can vary widely among individuals. HSP is caused by genetic mutations that disrupt the normal functioning of nerve cells in the spinal cord.
Paraplegia occurs after injury to the lower spinal cord
YES
The destruction of the lumbar spine in association with rheumatoid arthritis rarely is severe enough to cause paraplegia.
A hemorrhage in the spinal cord can cause pressure on the nerves contained within the column, killing them and preventing a message from being sent from the brain to the limb involved. This happened to my niece about 2 years ago.
The word paraplegia has Greek origins. It comes from a Greek word that translates to half striking. Paraplegia is generally caused by an injury to the spinal cord.
Paraplegia is the paralysis of both legs and the lower part of the body, typically caused by spinal cord injury or disease. This condition results in loss of sensation and motor function below the waist. Physical therapy and assistive devices can help individuals with paraplegia maintain mobility and independence.
Paraplegia is caused by trauma or disease of the spinal cord below the cervical portion of the spinal cord.
