The loss of sensation and voluntary muscle movements in a muscle is known as paralysis. This can result from damage to the nerves supplying the muscle or due to problems within the muscle itself. Treatment and management of paralysis depend on the underlying cause.
The extent to which movement and sensation are damaged depends on the level of the spinal cord injury.
The level of the paralysis determines its severity. Loss of bodily function and/or nerve counts from top-bottom spinal cord allow someone to examine the extent of the spinal injury.

Usually due to a traumatic spinal injury. Spinal injuries can damage the spinal cord (the bit that is usually protected by being encased in the vertebrae of the spine), which means that nerve impulses become unable to flow. This can result in loss of sensation, and paralysis. However muscle wasting diseases can also cause paralysis (but not usually loss of sensation).
