I injured my spinal chord 25 Sept last year and was paralyzed from my neck down?

i have since learned to walk again and use my arms again . however i am still numb below my chest and in my hands , will this numbness ever fade or will it be permanent ?

Answers:
The numbness may or may not fade, depending on the neural damage. It is difficult to judge without an examination. I am a physician but was shot across the right arm during the Vietnam War...the numbness remains and is not troublesome but there is very little feeling. You may experience the same. If you can feel heat or cold, and pressure, it is very likely you will regain more sensation. There are no exercises or other aids to improve matters, but you are fortunate to have regained so much.
I don't know the answer, but I wanted to congratulate you - you must have worked hard to get as far as you have in recovering.

Good luck.
