Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries
Accidents are the leading cause of neck, back, and spinal cord injuries. The type of accident can vary, but some common ones include the following.
Traffic accidents – Any type of vehicle crash can cause severe trauma to your body—including your spinal cord. Damage to the delicate tissue of the spine resulting in serious injuries can occur. While car and truck accidents certainly have the potential to cause an SCI, the risk is even greater in motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents since the victim’s body is exposed.
Falls – Falls are a major cause of traumatic injuries, including spinal cord injuries. A person who falls has a great risk of hitting the neck or back on the ground or on another object, which can damage the spine. This can take place due to falls from high places (such as from ladders, roofs, scaffolding, or stairs) or even ground level.
Sports accidents – Contact sports commonly cause spinal injuries, including football, hockey, rugby, wrestling, and soccer. When you choose to play a sport—or allow your child to play a sport—you assume the risk of injuries that may take place during the regular course of the game. However, sports injuries sometimes result from the negligence or intentional actions of a coach, another player, or another party. If someone else’s negligence or recklessness injured your spine during a sporting event or practice, you may have a legal claim. Contact Morgan & Morgan to learn more about your legal rights.
