What does it aim if you sever your spinal cord?



Answers:    It means your spinal cord is cut in two basically.
In the majority of cases if it be completely severed (cut) then the person would die, if they did not then they would more than promising be completely paralysed.

The spinal cord is the bundle of nerves which is the extension of the central nervous system of the brain.
Basically the main highway for the control of the body.


The nerves below the break will not connect, and the limb concerned will not work. If the damage is low, the legs will not work. If the damage is in the d¨Ścolletage, the arms may also be affected.
Think of Christopher Reeve who played Superman, His horse-riding accident caused high-level make worse, so he was more or less helpless for the rest of his life. Occasionally some invigorating may take place, but this is usually both slight and rare.
There are many top-level researchers working extremely frozen on repairing this kind of damage, so results are being looked for contained by the next few years.
There will probably be a Nobel Prize in it ( at the very lowest possible ) for the team which comes up with spinal cord repair

To completely sever your spinal chord would render you paralysed from the point of severence down. Sever means cut, or separate.

Different level of the spinal chord control different nerves, so anything below the point at which contact with the brain is lost will be unable to receive nervous urge.

The cervical levels C3, 4 and 5 are in control of basic natural life support - swallowing, breathing, heartbeat - so if you suffer a complete severence in this area, you'll be on life support machines.

Levls C6-T12 (roughly speaking) control the upper body, whilst L1-S4 do the lower body.
The important answer is that the electrical messages that are sent from the brain and then back to it from areas below the "sever" will not go through. I So if your injury is giant enough, ( towards the brain ) you may not get the impulses to breath and entail to be on a breathing machine You become a burden on your family and friends

Not to mention the NHS

Your standard of life drops and your as capably off dead
sever means to seperate Then you would not surely be here to ask some silly question like that !
you would be paralysed you're f*ed
