The spinal cord is one of the most essential components in our body structure. It houses part of the central nervous system (CNS), which aids us with our reflexes, sensory processing, and many more functions relevant to our daily life. The spinal cord also supports our neck and head as well as keeping us upright and straight as a whole. A spinal cord injury is when some damage or fracture to the spinal cord affects its structure and function, and it can be extremely debilitating and life-changing. This is because it can affect the CNS which is in charge of motor and sensory function. 

Lumbar spinal cord injuries affect the lumbar portion of the spine, which includes the five vertebrae of the lower back. Generally speaking, severe spinal cord injuries will result in paralysis of all areas below the affected area, so this type of injury often results in loss of function in the lower half of the body (from the hips down).

Those who sustain a lumbar spinal cord injury will likely be able to live their life without assistance from other individuals, but they would require assistance in other forms. For example, they may have little to no control of their bladder and bowel, but special equipment can make this difficulty more manageable. They may also require a wheelchair. Recovery measures and recovery time will depend on the severity and location of the injury, however, these are not considered a life-threatening spinal cord injury. Rehabilitation and special equipment will take major adjustments to get accustomed to, but allow the injured individual to manage their life on their own.
