A member asked:
C7 spinal injury approximately what percentage of c7 injured pts walk again or get their life back to almost normal i know every case is different?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You are correct: Highly variable, and depends on extent of spinal cord injury. However, with time taken to healing, and useful rehabilitation programs within a certified rehab hospital, the outcomes are far better. An occupational therapist working with a physical therapist may devise assistive devices to speed your mobility.
