When all limbs are paralyzed, the condition is referred to as "quadriplegia" or "tetraplegia." This condition typically results from a spinal cord injury or a neurological condition that affects motor function. Quadriplegia involves the loss of muscle function in both the arms and legs, often impacting the torso as well. The severity and extent of paralysis can vary depending on the cause and location of the injury or condition.
