Part 1/3: 🧠 A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is interrupted, depriving it of oxygen and nutrients. But who’s really at risk — and can it happen to anyone?

Understanding the common causes of traumatic spine injuries is the first step in prevention! 🚨

🦴 Complications of Other Diseases: Conditions such as arthritis and osteoporosis can weaken the bones and joints, making the spine more susceptible to injury.

🪜 Falls: Whether at home, work, or in public spaces, falls remain one of the leading causes of spine injuries, especially for older adults.

⚽ Sports Injuries: High-impact or contact sports, especially when protective gear is neglected, put athletes at risk for spinal trauma.

🦠 Infections on the Spinal Cord: Rare, but infections can lead to severe spinal damage if left untreated.

If you suspect that you have experienced a traumatic spine injury, don't wait, seek medical attention immediately!

Back pain isn’t always from poor posture or long hours at your desk. Sometimes, it can signal deeper spine conditions that need attention.

Common causes include:

Slipped Disc – when a disc presses on nerves, causing sharp or radiating pain.

Spinal Degeneration – gradual wear and tear that leads to stiffness or nerve compression.

Spinal Stenosis – narrowing of the spinal canal, causing numbness or weakness in the arms or legs.

Traumatic Spine Injury – pain following a fall or accident may suggest something more serious.

Ignoring persistent back pain can lead to chronic discomfort, nerve damage, or reduced mobility.
💡 Early detection matters: A simple scan and consultation with a spine specialist can help identify the cause before it worsens.

Your spine supports every move you make — take care of it before small problems become big ones.
