According to the Spinal Cord Injury Model System’s Facts and Figures sheet, approximately 30 percent of people who have been diagnosed with a spinal cord injury end up in the hospital again within one year of the original injury. In some cases, this is because of complications with the injury, but diseases related to the genitourinary system and those affecting the skin are also common issues.
While the leading cause of spinal cord injuries is motor vehicle accidents, accounting for 38 percent of injuries, falls are a close second, coming in at 30 percent. Whether your injury was caused by a drunk driver in a car accident or a fall due to inadequate property maintenance, you may have a case for the civil courts if another party was at fault or negligent.
