Treatment of Cervical Cord Injury
Emergency medical care is required. Early stage treatment focuses on immobilizing the spine to prevent further damage using a brace and surgery. Breathing difficulties and low blood pressure must be addressed. Later stage treatment aims to recover as much muscle power as possible through physical therapy at a rehabilitation facility.
