Yesterday your nephew was severely injured in a motorcycle accident. The provider believes there is a fracture in the thoracic spine but needs to have a radiological workup to determine the extend of the injury. your brother is very concerned because his son has no sensations or control of his body from the waist down. He has asked you what you think of his condition.

Answer:

It sounds like paralysis.

Explanation:

I don't think a fracture in the thoracic spine would cause him to not feel anything from the waist down. In fact, he should be feeling pain.

Radiological will reveal what exactly is going on without any unnecessary assumptions. I am leaning towards axial burst or extension fracture.

I am also not a doctor.
