Does lumbar comminuted fracture cause paralysis?

If the fracture site is not compressed and the spinal cord is injured, early active treatment will usually not affect the spinal cord function, and the limb motor function will be normal. However, if the spinal cord is severely damaged during the fracture process, resulting in dysfunction, it may not be able to control the movement of the lower limbs. At this time, paralysis will occur. Some patients may be accompanied by limb numbness, sensory loss, incontinence and other symptoms.
