Causes Of Paralysis From Car Accidents To Slip-And-Falls

Any injury from hard whiplash to fractured vertebrae can result in damage to the spinal cord. Here are examples of accidents that may lead to full or partial paralysis:

• Car accidents

• Pedestrian and bicycle accidents

• Slip-and-fall accidents

• Being struck by falling objects
