| spinal shock |
A period of time after a spinal cord injury, when the area around the damaged cord is bruised and swollen. It can last for up to 6 weeks. During this time no messages can pass through the spinal cord below the level of injury. This will make the loss of function below the injury appear complete, and it is only once the swelling subsides that the true extent of the damage will become clearer.

Similar to a concussion in the brain, spinal shock causes the system shuts down. In spinal cord injury, shock causes immediate flaccid paralysis, which lasts about three or four weeks. Improvement then occurs to a great extent, due to several possibilities: restoration of blood flow; synaptic reconnection; restoration of myelin integrity and axonal connection.
