How To Claim for Disability Caused by Cauda Equina Syndrome Negligence
Cauda equina syndrome, caused by compression of the cauda equina nerves in the lumbar region of the back, can result in severe disability.
Occasionally, the adverse development of this debilitating condition is exacerbated by negligent medical care and the patient ends up with significant symptoms which they should not have suffered with more timely care.
Where this unfortunate situation is found to have occurred, the patient should be legally entitled to claim compensation for the disability and its implications for their quality of life.
Compression of these nerves can cause an individual to lose control of both bladder and bowel as well as suffering loss of mobility and loss of sexual function and sensation.
The implications for a person's quality of life can be wide-ranging, compromising their ability to work and earn a living, to navigate safely around their own home, to carry out everyday personal and household tasks and engage in a range of leisure activities. Their entire way of life can be lost to this disabling condition.
If this distressing situation is, in full or in part, the result of negligent medical care, contact a specialist solicitor to investigate the quality of your care and assess the financial implications.
