@@jellybean6556 Extensive spinal cord damage I have a open spine now from C3 to C7 the Japanese are well known for doing this type of surgery where they remove the back of the spine and fit metal rods either side, I get a lot of nerve pain which is horrendous, but i’ve made a very good recovery, I spent several months at Stanmore Orthopaedic Hospital and then one year at Bolsover Street, London for rehab treatment,
That's great news, this will give us more hope for my daughter who is 2 years old. She has C3-C5 spinal cord injury too. Anyway, may i Know about the operation? did Dr operate on your back neck? Thanks in advance for your answer!
Fifty-four years ago, at the age of 18, I was in a motorcycle accident caused by a hit-and-run drunk driver. As a result, I broke my neck at the C 3-4 level. (Complete) I am a living miracle, and I give my thanks and praise to Jesus Christ. By the way, seven years after my accident, I forgave the drunk driver, which was the best gift I could have given myself.
You are a most remarkable person! Kudos to you ! I recently had a motorcycle accident with injury to C5 C6 . I had a posterior fusion from C3 to C7 and a laminectomy to C5 and C6. I'm 77 and recovery is going so well. I am truly grateful.
As a retired Medic I sympathise with anyone who has succumbed to a "C - Spine" injury as I myself have a C5/6 disc herniation making life pretty challenging and painful. My symptoms are less severe than many but I also have had multiple major surgeries on # (fracture) to L3/4/5 over the years resulting in continued pain, paralysis and complete lack of feeling in one leg, causing multiple falls. I use sticks, wheelchair, scooter to get about. I used to do loadsa sports but alas I only dream them now. My cervical spine causes total lack of feeling in one arm resulting in many coffee cups and dinners covering both me, the floor/furniture! For anyone out there whose pain is severe there's support somewhere. Analgesics (pain killers) are an option, but be careful if you choose the "Opioid" route, such as MST (morphine sulphate). Highly addictive and a list of side effects as long as ur arm. I went thru a mere 4 days of withdrawal to get off the damn stuff! There's help out there with not only your family doctor but other well trained medical professionals. In the end life can have a bright side. A laugh with friends helps a lot. As does putting the world to rights, over a cuppa of course. Remember, there's always someone worse off than you! Take care out there.
72 years old. A former boxer and combat martial artist since the age of nine. So I knew that I would end up like Muhammad Ali and some point. Started about 55. Cervical myelopathy. Lumbar stenosis. Bertolloti syndrome which is an extra vertebrae between lumbar and sacral joint. I opted for the cervical fusion. Twice. Anterior and emergency posterior. What surgeon didn't tell me post op was that I would experience Adjacent Segment Dysfunction. And that my ligamentum flavum would hypertrophy and calcify. Now I have vertigo. Autoimmune dysfunction that I treat myself with antihistamines. Helps with nausea and flushing with excessive sweating. I'm losing my vision and hearing. My ability to swallow. To breath. Nonstop pain. All over. A lot of MS symptoms. I saw what opiods did to a lot of family members. But I tried drugs like heroin. Briefly. I saw what drugs did to my family members. But the pain was debilitating. I thought of suicide. But my warrior upbringing wouldn't allow that. I discovered that like most of us I was fighting the pain. And losing every time. So I decided to befriend the pain. To make it an ally. A vehicle of self discovery. So instead of fighting the pain. I will mentally hitch a ride with the pain. Which oddly. Ironically. Changed the pain to pleasure. Actually it reduces the severity of the pain. And it becomes manageable. Spiritually it's the sublimation of suffering. Hang in there.
@@calvinmurry1096 I'm sorry to learn this! I'm 61 with Dystonia hitting between C4 - C7. It's been 1.5yrs and nothings helping. The surgery they talk about makes me wonder if I'll go that far, esp w this condition they said the muscles could actually break & strip the hardware they'd use. IDK the answer but the paralysis in my arms shows up periodically & things aren't improving via meds so I may have to decide if that surgery is worth it. Just sharing. Hope you are doing well.
are you going to do the disc replacement surgery? I am scared I have a herniated cervical disc but I have intermittent pain in my hands and leg I thought it's more a problem to worry when it's accidents or rupture to the cord
I am also survival..now my age 30. Past 14 years ago i operation my c1 and c2 dislocation operation with 2 squrow. Alhumdulillah there are no problem in my body..but i am always aware for my vehicle joury..i am form Bangladesh. This operation was occure in Bangladesh hospital green life hospital..doctor in lab aid hospital in Bangladesh. Don't hope less..be possitive..allah is almighty.
I had injured my cervical spine - specifically herniated discs, C3-5. I am so very thankful that the actual spinal cord wasn't damaged, and I had no loss of anatomical functions other than temporary numbness to both arms. But man...... That was probably the second most painful injury I have sustained in my entire life. Every little movement, every little insignificant shifts in my body's center of gravity, and every forced breath felt like someone sledgehammering the back of my neck, head, back and my shoulders. It probably didn't help that this injury came paired with a delicious side dish of TBI. Fortunately, I have made a very good recovery since then, and I can function almost at a complete normal level. I still occasionally experience "locked" neck and stiff pain, but considering all the other things that could have happened to me, I'm infinitely grateful. However, I later suffered a stress injury to L4-6 which did worsen my general spinal health. After 2 years of treatments, LOTS of physical therapy sessions, and a rehab center visit, I am able to function again. I now try to keep myself as healthy and fit as possible through proper diet and exercises, and I feel better than I have ever before, albeit a few things that I have to be cautious with in regards to reinjuring my spine. The moral of the story? Take care of your body, folks. I don't wanna sound like that one old guy, but really, take care of your body even if you are young and fit. Whatever harms come to your body now will definitely show up not too far down the road. Stay healthy and stay upright, everyone!
My c3 vertibra is damage in accident, but grace of Allah, Dr sunil pandit operate it and make me as good as I am before the accident, I always thanks him for this.
How do you feel now ? I have fracture to c6 and c7 and d5 only 2 months and half no spinol cord injusry the docs said 6 month or ill be fine lots of weekness and symtoms in the right inluding fogs and ear hearing problem i hope all these symtoms subside one day......
Great info, but remember that c3-4 still have ability to talk and yes, our breathing may be weak but I have the ability to to talk just fine- not vent dependent. I have a few friends at c3 again who are similar, and when it comes to incomplete injuries, as you know, there are walking quads etc...
JahJJMac, that is a great point thanks for sharing. We have attempted to share some of the common challenges which can be related to each level. In future videos we may need to better explain how unique every injury is and that individuals such as you and your friends may not experience all of the symptoms. Thank you for commenting please feel free to check out the rest of our site/blog and provide feedback there as well!

Yes I'd love to hear how and what level effects the autonomic system As I have dysautonomia ever since my surgery (dr didn't do anything wrong it just happened ) He said it may go away or stay So far it's stayed and getting worse But pain and other symptoms like numbness and my terrible grip is all fixed So why the autonomic dysfunction if it seems I'm 80% cured and free of most symptoms I no you're not my doctor and can't diagnose me I'm very very curious
I mean I went from scalding pain not even able to pick up a piece of paper To most my fuctions back and better than they have been in years and pain is moderate Why the downward spiral of my autonomic system ?
A little while back my friend had received a c5 injury. He’s doing pretty good now, he can feel things and he has his sensory features . His problem is he lost 20 pounds of muscle. I think he completely recovered from his spinal injury. The doctors even say he’ll be able to walk and live a normal life again one day. Is that really possible? Edit: My friend is now fully recovered and does everything he used to be able to do minus some more difficult things like swimming and heavy lifting. We are so greatful for all your kind words and I pray that anyone struggling through this type of injury gets the help they need❤️!
Well every injury is different but we have certainly seen people make great recoveries and resume activities they enjoyed before an accident. I would recommend he look into activity based therapy its a great way to maintain muscles and it is specific for paralysis recovery. www.spinalcord.com/activity-based-therapy-centers
I fractured my C5 never got surgery but worked out very hard since then. It hurts still but I'm extremely strong compared to most people. Tell your friend not to lose hope. It will always be a struggle but it's a chance to appreciate life everydsy
my father had an car accident 6 years ago and injured his spinal cord from C-3 to C-7.. miraculously my father still survive to this day. We try many method like physiotherapy, acupuncture, massages any medical treatment and etc. but there's no improvement and we still didn't give up cause we believe 1 day he will walk again. Has anyone experienced similar situation that ? Appreciate anyone could give me some advices on this. Thanks 🙏
Jin, check out an activity based therapy center near you to see if your dad is a fit for treatment at one of those facilities. They offer a great foundation of recovery, www.spinalcord.com/activity-based-therapy-centers . There are no guarantees but I think you will benefit from checking them out.
Iam gladd i watched this video iam struggling with top of the skull pain,buring sensation,waking up with both hands numb,mid back pain with shortness of breath.just got referred to a neurosurgeon for treatment maybe even fusion surgery.god bless our world
I pray you recover well. I just found out that I have c3-c4 ligament damaged which troubles breathing little and limits little neck mobility. With time and therapy hope it helps :(
My friend fractured his C3 vertebrate and he’ll never walk again and his arms won’t move either as well. It’s heartbreaking it was from mountain Biking please support the family #fightwitheoghan
Was just told I have a nerve root narrowing/impingement issue left C3 -C4. I do have problems catching my breath sometimes. I wanted the MRI to check the atlas - I get shocks in both wrists - since 2001.Not enough issues with my C6 C7 for the shocks they say.
I have constant headaches coupled with nerve pains in back of head. My Xray showed Severe disc space narrowing C3-4, C5-6. Endplate osteophyte reformation (?) and to lesser extent C4-5. My doctor was vague on details and referred me to pain specialist. Any input on relations to pain and xray findings. Doctor said MRI wasn't necessary.. I disagree...
I had a concussion and nerve pains in the back of my head- at least the pain specialist can do injections that will take the pain away in 30 minutes. Please write to me.. Cheryl Barrett Graham
I would say u need an MRI to make sure things. You're symptoms almost same like mine. But i only diagnose with c3 fractured through X ray. Waiting for MRI now.
@@CharlotteRollsOn someone I know had a c3/c4 spinal injury and after a year from icu and rehabilitation therapy is waiting to do a epidural stimulator he is aged just over 30 and the incident occurred a year ago. What would you recommend?
According to what I hear it is not completely severed the spinal cord...but I have seen cases which may be quite similar and whom did the epidural stimulator but they are still wheelchair bound and you rarely see them standing up or walking on their own accord but I reckon as long as their is hope their is a way...and take it from one day at a time and prayers may help as well alongside medication 🙏🏻
I had spinal cord injury, C4 C5 subluxation was there, the same was operated. After 3 months of my accident I started walking, after 6 months I started driving car, after 10 months bike and after 1 year cycle on road. Trust me it's true...
I have to know the treatment of physical trauma around left jaw,neck,shoulder,back(the pain is internal) it's painful everyday. You do consider it as a result of physical assault.. At the left side of the body.. In X ray it's found out a bone between shoulder and neck is compressed. Even after consuming calcium rich food for a couple of months... It's not healing. It's been six months.. And every day is more painful. We went to the doctor (specialist of spinal cord) but the medicines didn't work for long run... Please tell me how to treat it naturally ❤🙏
@@christinamar6310 Just move your head as often as you can. It may hurt, but if you let your neck get stiff, recovery will take even longer. When I was laying in the hospital, my bed was at one side of the room, so I HAD to turn my head to look at my nurse when she entered my room. When I went back to work, I didn't look at anyone for a whole week; I just walked in a straight line and didn't move my head. Don't do that.
Hi.. One of my relative met with accedent and his medical report says.."C5 compression flexion injury with C5 motor c7 sensory" .. Surgery done 3 day's back... Can you please let me know how long will it take to recover.. and how much percent patient body parts will recover..
landed on my head on a trampoline went paralyzed for 2 mins went to dr and they found nothing wrong i have had neck and back pain ever since it's been about 14 years ago
Hi. I'm recovering from a c5 fracture. I've been in a neck brace for 8 weeks got another 4 to go. I get my final exray 9 August I'm hoping things will be OK. I have been suffering bad pains in my shoulders. Help and advice most appreciated. Thanks

Tell that to the countless people who are suffering in immense pain begging and pleading for your God to take it away from them only to be still be in pain…people like you are a joke don’t you ever try to diminish unimaginable pain/suffering you POS
Hello Dr. Thanks for the video. I have a C3 & C4 injury. Could you please tell me how I can relieve the pain? My symptoms are usually at my both shoulders and upper back. The pain feels like a lot of pressure, I can’t sleep for a longer period of time due to the pressure built up on my shoulders while sleeping. Is surgery the only option to fix this issue? If so, what are the short term and long term complications from surgery? I have tried Accupuncture, PT/OT, chiropractor, PO meds and still no progress. Any advice would be great. Thank you.
I to have a C4 C5 injury and I noticed that getting Botox shots in both my elbows has helped relieve the pain and regain some motion so I don't know if you are still at the hospital level or not but may be asking about that shot might help you out a little bit if you'd like to talk some more please DM me
My nerve compression is on the c3 and c4. And am so afraid of going for the surgery to decompress the nerves. Anyone with success story of this surgery?
Hi there, my partner had to have an operation on c4/5 back in Mar & hasn't improved much he has had some physio but he feels like he is worse than before the operation. The surgeon says if there's no real improvement by Oct there considering operating again which I don't think he wants due to the risks & the medication does help ie gabapentin 300mg 3 times a day & amitriptyline 25mg 1 a day. Can you recommend anything to help him please

Yo this post gives me a ton of motivation. I was hit by a car on my bicycle and suffered a massive traumatic injury directly to my C4,C5 and collar bone areas. Fractured facial bones, permanent scarring, everything. Now I’m sitting here as a candidate for surgery at age 31 fighting for every step I take. Thanks for supplying the much needed encouragement to not go for the spinal surgery unless it keeps getting worse! Hopefully my doctors agree
Hello, do you think prp will help? I have quite a few herniated disc in my neck which is causing the cervical stenosis. I can’t bare the pain any longer and I have 2 kids that need my full attention. Any update will help. Thank you

Something like 10 years ago I had an accident and my head went through some really hard drywall. Like I cannot bust it in anyway with my hand or foot. I've tried with the edges of the hole and.. I can't believe it even happened. Went almost perfectly straight line top of my head first. Knocked me out good and I was so messed up for months and months, I could barely breathe, swallow, or sleep because it hurt so bad. For many years after it was incredibly hard to turn my head, but always hurt to some degree no matter what. I had bouts of numbing on outer part of my hand last couple few fingers palm and all.. The last couple years it comes and goes, but when it flares up it becomes intense if I don't just stay straight and use my arms very little. I wonder if I've lost the muscle needed.. I guess I could kind of tell it seemed like it was more like toward that ball on your neck kind of like the base idk.. I mean it was everywhere it felt like my skull was separating from itself, and from my neck, but ended up seeming like was stemming from the area down further. For different reasons I never sought help I was also a little concerned about finding the right person to not do any manipulating you know without scans.. I just never spent money on myself either and bla bla bla but I wonder if it's been too long or could it be worth looking at. Idk where to start.. and if I made it this long is it needed or do I just toughen up?
My mother sicked from cervical spinal problem from C3 to C6 may be, that's why,doctor suggests that by this problem nerves are gonna damaging day by day and have to do surgery and have to insert a plate in damage area so that the damage remedy day by day but after the surgery, she is going to paralyse. And she is paralysed now😭😭😭please,tell me what we can now???
Obiviously my doctor doesn't feel that all the pain loss of fuction of arms, legs and severe pain running from my neck to upper head just take Ibuprofen!

Hello sir,my father is affected by the C3-C4 of space 3 mm. Normal space is 11mm. Is it required neuro surgery ? Can it not be cured through physiotherapy and regular exercise.? Please sir reply me. I am from India , I am very much confused what to do. And lastly one thing is neuro surgery a risky operation? I hope you reply. Thanks a lot. Waiting for your reply.
Hi, I'm a c4/5 injury it's so painful to live such pain through out ur life, I'm just 17 years old and this condition is not going to allow me to get my dream, please I need help 🙏🙏😭😭
I'm also from India but live in Germany and got treatment for the same. Best treatment is the exercise, especially the shoulder one because the shoulder muscles support spinal cords, one they are weak they don't support the cords well and we get all short of problems. Of course, eating well is also important to get enough calcium and correct posture for sitting is also important. Use good chair, adjustable table if you use computer to have screen at same level as your eyes, orthopedic pillows etc also help. I repeat, most important is regular exercise.
I currently have a herniated C3/C4 disc I too was thinking the absolute worst but I was reassured that I am not in danger whatsoever, I had 2 MRIs last year and there was no compression on my spinal cord. I get a second cortisone shot into my cervical spine I believe this video is talking about serious injuries resulting from falls and crashes, nothing I heard in this video seemed to be related to a herniated disc
Ab aap kaise ho .. please reply 😢😢😢😢😢.. Mere Bhai ka 08 August 2023 c5 me fracture hua..lekin Aaj wo chal leta ...phir bhi sharir me bharipan batata hai... Please ab aap kaise ho ..kya aapne surgery karayi thi..
Degrees of completeness are on the ASIA scale: A, B, C, D and E A is complete B is complete C is incomplete with strength lower than a muscle grade of 2 (meaning the person can’t move limbs against gravity or struggles to do so without support, or there is minimal movement or none) D means it’s incomplete but they have more strength (grade 3 or higher) in the muscles E is no spinal cord injury/ normal

Your Dr was Dr Allah? What hospital does he work out of ?
I had injured my cervical spine - specifically herniated discs, C3-5. I am so very thankful that the actual spinal cord wasn't damaged, and I had no loss of anatomical functions other than temporary numbness to both arms.
But man...... That was probably the second most painful injury I have sustained in my entire life. Every little movement, every little insignificant shifts in my body's center of gravity, and every forced breath felt like someone sledgehammering the back of my neck, head, back and my shoulders. It probably didn't help that this injury came paired with a delicious side dish of TBI.
Fortunately, I have made a very good recovery since then, and I can function almost at a complete normal level. I still occasionally experience "locked" neck and stiff pain, but considering all the other things that could have happened to me, I'm infinitely grateful. However, I later suffered a stress injury to L4-6 which did worsen my general spinal health. After 2 years of treatments, LOTS of physical therapy sessions, and a rehab center visit, I am able to function again. I now try to keep myself as healthy and fit as possible through proper diet and exercises, and I feel better than I have ever before, albeit a few things that I have to be cautious with in regards to reinjuring my spine.
The moral of the story? Take care of your body, folks. I don't wanna sound like that one old guy, but really, take care of your body even if you are young and fit. Whatever harms come to your body now will definitely show up not too far down the road.
Stay healthy and stay upright, everyone!

The best channel I’ve ever seen on spines.
What a nice compliment, thank you!
Thankyou for your encouraging words.
What would happen if compression occur in c3 c4?
Would appreciate your response
Great info, but remember that c3-4 still have ability to talk and yes, our breathing may be weak but I have the ability to to talk just fine- not vent dependent. I have a few friends at c3 again who are similar, and when it comes to incomplete injuries, as you know, there are walking quads etc...
JahJJMac, that is a great point thanks for sharing. We have attempted to share some of the common challenges which can be related to each level. In future videos we may need to better explain how unique every injury is and that individuals such as you and your friends may not experience all of the symptoms. Thank you for commenting please feel free to check out the rest of our site/blog and provide feedback there as well!

Yes I'd love to hear how and what level effects the autonomic system
As I have dysautonomia ever since my surgery (dr didn't do anything wrong it just happened )
He said it may go away or stay
So far it's stayed and getting worse
But pain and other symptoms like numbness and my terrible grip is all fixed
So why the autonomic dysfunction if it seems I'm 80% cured and free of most symptoms
I no you're not my doctor and can't diagnose me I'm very very curious
I mean I went from scalding pain not even able to pick up a piece of paper
To most my fuctions back and better than they have been in years and pain is moderate
Why the downward spiral of my autonomic system ?
For any issue in spine do watch the folowing clip....best and effective........

A little while back my friend had received a c5 injury. He’s doing pretty good now, he can feel things and he has his sensory features . His problem is he lost 20 pounds of muscle. I think he completely recovered from his spinal injury. The doctors even say he’ll be able to walk and live a normal life again one day. Is that really possible?
Edit: My friend is now fully recovered and does everything he used to be able to do minus some more difficult things like swimming and heavy lifting. We are so greatful for all your kind words and I pray that anyone struggling through this type of injury gets the help they need❤️!
Well every injury is different but we have certainly seen people make great recoveries and resume activities they enjoyed before an accident. I would recommend he look into activity based therapy its a great way to maintain muscles and it is specific for paralysis recovery. www.spinalcord.com/activity-based-therapy-centers
I fractured my C5 never got surgery but worked out very hard since then. It hurts still but I'm extremely strong compared to most people. Tell your friend not to lose hope. It will always be a struggle but it's a chance to appreciate life everydsy

Was just told I have a nerve root narrowing/impingement issue left C3 -C4. I do have problems catching my breath sometimes. I wanted the MRI to check the atlas - I get shocks in both wrists - since 2001.Not enough issues with my C6 C7 for the shocks they say.
How long it takes to recover from you're C3_ C4 surgery?
I have constant headaches coupled with nerve pains in back of head. My Xray showed Severe disc space narrowing C3-4, C5-6. Endplate osteophyte reformation (?) and to lesser extent C4-5. My doctor was vague on details and referred me to pain specialist. Any input on relations to pain and xray findings. Doctor said MRI wasn't necessary.. I disagree...
I had a concussion and nerve pains in the back of my head- at least the pain specialist can do injections that will take the pain away in 30 minutes. Please write to me.. Cheryl Barrett Graham
I would say u need an MRI to make sure things. You're symptoms almost same like mine. But i only diagnose with c3 fractured through X ray. Waiting for MRI now.

Trust me it's true...
Thank you so much! This gives me hope for my father..
I have to know the treatment of physical trauma around left jaw,neck,shoulder,back(the pain is internal) it's painful everyday.
You do consider it as a result of physical assault.. At the left side of the body.. In X ray it's found out a bone between shoulder and neck is compressed.
Even after consuming calcium rich food for a couple of months... It's not healing.
It's been six months..
And every day is more painful.
We went to the doctor (specialist of spinal cord) but the medicines didn't work for long run...
Please tell me how to treat it naturally

@@christinamar6310 Just move your head as often as you can. It may hurt, but if you let your neck get stiff, recovery will take even longer. When I was laying in the hospital, my bed was at one side of the room, so I HAD to turn my head to look at my nurse when she entered my room. When I went back to work, I didn't look at anyone for a whole week; I just walked in a straight line and didn't move my head. Don't do that.

Before the surgery I wanted to die I'm not being dramatic I really tried to kill myskef multiple times I couldn't stand the SCALDING pain and intense migraines another second !!
and I'm so happy I never have to worry about a fake disc wearing out on me I'm fixed for life
So luckily he did it correctly otherwise Id be screwed for life no way to correct
People under 70-80 really shouldn't be getting these crappy fake discs unless 100% necessary

Something like 10 years ago I had an accident and my head went through some really hard drywall. Like I cannot bust it in anyway with my hand or foot. I've tried with the edges of the hole and.. I can't believe it even happened. Went almost perfectly straight line top of my head first. Knocked me out good and I was so messed up for months and months, I could barely breathe, swallow, or sleep because it hurt so bad. For many years after it was incredibly hard to turn my head, but always hurt to some degree no matter what. I had bouts of numbing on outer part of my hand last couple few fingers palm and all.. The last couple years it comes and goes, but when it flares up it becomes intense if I don't just stay straight and use my arms very little. I wonder if I've lost the muscle needed.. I guess I could kind of tell it seemed like it was more like toward that ball on your neck kind of like the base idk.. I mean it was everywhere it felt like my skull was separating from itself, and from my neck, but ended up seeming like was stemming from the area down further. For different reasons I never sought help I was also a little concerned about finding the right person to not do any manipulating you know without scans.. I just never spent money on myself either and bla bla bla but I wonder if it's been too long or could it be worth looking at. Idk where to start.. and if I made it this long is it needed or do I just toughen up?

Forgot misuse of the y-strap device.
Hlo sir I am from india my problem is cervicle spine curve and c5c6 osteophytes my body in very weakness and everyday chronic pain
I'm also from India but live in Germany and got treatment for the same. Best treatment is the exercise, especially the shoulder one because the shoulder muscles support spinal cords, one they are weak they don't support the cords well and we get all short of problems. Of course, eating well is also important to get enough calcium and correct posture for sitting is also important. Use good chair, adjustable table if you use computer to have screen at same level as your eyes, orthopedic pillows etc also help. I repeat, most important is regular exercise.
I wish I had known

A is complete
B is complete
C is incomplete with strength lower than a muscle grade of 2 (meaning the person can’t move limbs against gravity or struggles to do so without support, or there is minimal movement or none)
D means it’s incomplete but they have more strength (grade 3 or higher) in the muscles
E is no spinal cord injury/ normal
