Summary Introduction
To determine:
The effect on the individual’s bowel and bladder control on the transection of the spinal cord at the L1 segment level.
Concept introduction:
The spinal cord controls the all over functions of the body. The nerves in the spinal cord controls bladder and bowel functions and they may be responsible for skin problems.
