Paralysis Can Limit Your Body’s Range of Movement

Paralysis is known as a loss of physical control or strength over a specific muscle or muscle group in the body, as stated by Healthline. It is not usually due to an issue within the muscles themselves, but rather, more often related to an issue within the nerve cells that work between the affected body part and the brain. These nerve cells are responsible for delivering signals to your muscles, indicating them to move. Paralysis is related to a breakdown in communication within the nerve cells and the affected muscles.

Paralysis can happen in various degrees.

Among the types of paralysis are:

• Complete: Which occurs when a person cannot move any their muscles in any manner
• Permanent: Paralysis without the chance of recovering; muscle control never returns
• Partial: Also known as paresis, is when there is still some control over muscle movement
• Temporary: When paralysis is not permanent, and some or all muscle control returns
• Spastic: When muscles spasm, jerk erratically, and are tight and hard

Paralysis may occur almost anywhere in the body. In your case, it may be localized, meaning that your injury only affects one part of the body, such as an arm, leg, hand, the face, or the vocal cords. Your injury may also be generalized, meaning that multiple parts of the body could be affected.

Among the types of generalized paralysis are:

• Monoplegia: affecting just one limb
• Hemiplegia: affecting one side of the body
• Diplegia: affecting one area on both sides of the body (e.g., both arms or sides of the face)
• Paraplegia: affecting both legs and in some cases, sections of the trunk
• Quadriplegia or tetraplegia: affecting both of the arms or both of the legs

Only a medical doctor can provide an answer as to whether your condition will improve over time.

How Paralysis May Affect Your Body

As stated by the Cleveland Clinic, paralysis may include a number of other issues unrelated to movement.

These issues include:

• Complications involving breathing, one’s heart rate, or blood flow
• Blood clots in the legs
• The normal functioning of organs, glands, or tissues
• Injuries to the skin, such as pressure sores
• Problems with urinating and defecating
• Problems related to sexual function
• The inability to communicate, speak, or swallow
• Personality, emotional, or mood changes

Paralysis affects each person differently. Some people living with paralysis are able to live independently while others require around-the-clock care.

Filing a Claim for Your Paralysis Injury

If you were injured due to someone else’s negligent actions or failure to act, and you were paralyzed as a result, you are entitled to seek compensation for your losses. Paralysis can affect everything about your daily life, causing tremendous pain and suffering, loss of quality of life, and loss of the ability to continue working in your previous capacity.

Additionally, such a severe medical diagnosis can require extensive medical treatment, surgeries, lifelong therapy, and other types of ongoing treatment to manage your condition. The medical expenses can range well into the hundreds of thousands of dollars––perhaps even higher–– when all factors are considered. If your accident occurred due to the negligence of another party, our team will fight for you to obtain the compensation that you deserve in order to compensate you for the damages you have suffered and will continue to suffer.
