A member asked:
Does being paralyzed in a wheel chair effect your immune system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mo: Being confined to a wheelchair does not affect your immune system. Any immune system problems are separate. If you are confined by a problem that affects your kidneys or skin breakdown, that is not due to a defective immune system. There is excellent rehabilitation available as you probably know.
