How Truck Accidents Can Cause Paralysis

Paralysis can occur when a truck accident causes damage to the central nervous system, which is made up of the brain and spinal cord. The National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC) has found motor vehicle collisions to be the leading cause of spinal cord injury, accounting for more than 38 percent of such injuries.

When the brain or spinal cord is injured, it can impair the functioning of the central nervous system. Paralysis disrupts nerve impulses that the brain sends throughout the body via the spinal cord. This disruption in the communication of signals to various parts of your body can impede movement below the area of the injury.

Types of Paralysis

There are many different types of paralysis. Paralysis can be categorized as partial or complete. The following terms are commonly used to describe the side or area of the body that is paralyzed:

• Monoplegia: A leg or arm
• Hemiplegia: One side of the body
• Diplegia: Two limbs on the same side of the body
• Paraplegia: Both legs or the lower part of the body
• Quadriplegia (Tetraplegia): Both the arms and legs or the body from the neck down.

According to the NSCISC, incomplete tetraplegia is the most frequently occurring spinal cord injury type, reported in 47.4 percent of paralysis cases. The San Diego truck accident attorneys at The Levinson Law Group have decades of experience helping clients in all types of paralysis cases. We are dedicated to holding negligent truck drivers and trucking companies accountable.

Pursuing Compensation for Paralysis in a San Diego Truck Accident

Spinal cord damage can have long-term consequences. Paralyzed truck accident victims may need to use a wheelchair or other assistive devices. The lifetime cost of paralysis is substantial, with medical bills that could amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.

At The Levinson Law Group, we are committed to doing everything we can to make sure you do not end up shouldering these expenses. If you have been paralyzed in a truck accident due to another’s negligence, you should not be the one suffering financial hardship.

Filing a truck accident lawsuit against the at-fault parties allows you to recover compensation for your injuries and other accident-related costs.
