SPINE AT WORK FOR THE LAYPERSON


Spine at work

Everyone engages in different activities in the course of a day.
Hardly ever do we stop to think about how the body works. Each person 
has a vertebral column which is made up of bones.

There are discs between the bones and nerves that originate from the brain.
Injury to the spine, may result in decreased activity to the extremities.
Without the spine. the body would be like a bowl of jello.


 
            Spine works and spinal trauma

Injury to the spine , may cause problems with breathing,
walking, standing or neck movement. Depending on which
area of the spine is involved, will determine how the injury
will affect the person.

Car accidents, diving accidents , falls and more, may cause 
injury to the spine. Medical attention is usually needed to
diagnose and help with the healing process.
