Treatment for Spinal Cord Injuries
There still is no cure for spinal cord injuries, although modern research continues to provide hope for future treatments.
The most encouraging recent breakthroughs are medications administered shortly after injury, which reduce the spinal cord swelling and lessen the severity of injury. Most of these medications are steroid-based. One of the most common is called methylprednisolone.
About 85% of spinal cord injury victims who survive the first day after injury are still alive ten years later. This is a substantial improvement from a generation ago.
