Any trauma or damage to the spinal cord or related nerves can cause numerous symptoms, such as pain, reduced strength and mobility, numbness, paralysis and loss of bodily functions. The exact location of the trauma will determine what parts of the body may suffer related difficulties. When you need treatment for spinal injury in Reno or Carson City, turn to skilled neurosurgeon Dr. Sina Rajamand at Battle Born Brain and Spine.

Common causes of spinal cord injury include:

• Vehicle accidents (the leading cause)
• Work accidents

Spinal injuries can range from the simple to the complex, requiring the services of an experienced specialist.
