I have hard question about spinal shock :(?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spinal cord shock: Usually this refers to a spinal cord injury where the cord is in shock because it has swelling (edema), which compresses the blood vessels and lowers the essential blood pressure (and supply) within the substance of the cord.
