When someone experiences a vertebral rupture due to an accident, they often lose general movement in specific parts of their body. However, I’ve always wondered why, given the advancements in technology, it remains challenging to rebuild the vertebrae and allow the body to heal itself, given the body even has the ability to do it.

The vertebrae protect the spinal cord, part of the central nervous system. Unfortunately rebuilding a vertebrae would not solve the issue of restoring sensation and voluntary functionality of the extremities. That task requires the knowledge and skills necessary to repair or rebuild artificial spinal cords that are compatible with the innate structures of the human central nervous system.
