A cervical spine injury refers to damage to the neck region of the spine, which consists of the first seven vertebrae (C1 to C7). This type of injury can result from trauma, such as car accidents, falls, or sports injuries. Symptoms may include pain, numbness, weakness, or loss of movement in the arms and legs, depending on the severity and location of the injury. Treatment for a cervical spine injury often involves immobilization, pain management, and rehabilitation. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to stabilize the spine or relieve pressure on the spinal cord. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving outcomes and preventing long-term complications.
