Complete spinal cord injuries often result in permanent disability, and the exact level and severity depend on the location of the spinal cord injury.
Rehabilitation therapy, assistive devices, and adaptive strategies are often used to help those with complete spinal cord injuries to regain as much independence and functionality as possible. Recovery from a complete spinal cord injury can be limited, but there have been improved outcomes for some.

Spine broke completely by gun shot at back, the bullet enter from back and out towards front at button belly

Male | 13

I'm truly sorry to hear about your injury. A complete break in your spine from a gunshot can lead to severe pain, loss of movement, or numbness in limbs. The symptoms arise from nerve damage and spinal instability. It’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention for appropriate imaging and treatment options. Surgery may be necessary to stabilize your spine, and rehabilitation can aid recovery. Always follow guidance of neurosurgeon and stay positive—many patients regain functionality through dedicated care and therapy.
