Incomplete Injury
An incomplete injury refers to a type of spinal cord injury where some sensory or motor function remains below the level of the injury. This means that the individual may still have partial movement or feeling in areas of the body that are affected. The extent of function can vary widely among individuals, depending on the severity and location of the injury.
In contrast to a complete injury, which results in total loss of function below the injury site, an incomplete injury allows for the possibility of recovery and rehabilitation. Individuals with an incomplete injury may benefit from therapies and interventions aimed at improving their mobility and quality of life, making it a critical area of focus in spinal cord injury management.
