The higher the damage to the spinal cord (i.e. closer to the brain), the worse the prognosis for sensation and movement throughout the body. This is because the spinal cord acts as a pathway for nerve signals to travel between the brain and the body, and the higher the damage, the more disruption to this pathway which can result in paralysis, numbness and other impairments.
