This volume explores the gravity of injuries to the spinal cord and aims to determine their true nature, separating fact from common misconception for those in the medical profession. Prior to this study, concussion of the spinal cord was assumed to have been caused by jarring in railway collisions and other incidents, leading to a host of ongoing health issues. The author challenges these assumptions by presenting cases where the symptoms attributed to spinal cord concussion were found to be the result of hemorrhage or other structural damage to the spinal column. The book also discusses the confusion between concussion of the brain and the supposed concussion of the spinal cord, illustrating how the latter condition may be misdiagnosed, resulting in inappropriate and potentially harmful treatments. This extensive study of spinal cord injuries provides invaluable guidance for medical professionals, dispelling misconceptions and providing a clearer understanding of the nature and treatment of these conditions.
