Why does a spinal cord injury usually result in loss of voluntary bladder tone?
No nerve impluses are present to send signals for the bladder to act, and sometimes the bowels are also affected where they do not move on their own either.
it doesn't always happen. it is indicative of an injury to the lumbar section of the spinal cord as this is where the nerves are located which control bladder/bowel function.
