DRThis one second decision could leave you paralyzed for life. 😳🌊 Diving headfirst into unknown water is one of the leading causes of catastrophic spinal cord injuries — and it happens faster than your brain can process what went wrong. Here's what happens on impact:🚨 Your head hits the bottom at full force
🚨 The cervical spine compresses instantly
🚨 Vertebrae shatter or dislocate
🚨 The spinal cord gets crushed or severed
🚨 Signal from brain to body — GONEC4 and above? You stop breathing on your own. 😳 Most victims are young, healthy, and had no idea the water was shallow. In under 3 feet of water this injury happens at normal diving speed. One bad dive. One ruined life. 🩺✅Follow @drdavidabbasi for More Daily Medical Content & Health Tips!🌴😷Schedule a consultation in Delray Beach! Visit www.primeorthocenter.com
