Spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality (SCIWORA) is symptoms of a spinal cord injury (SCI) with no evidence of injury to the spinal column on X-rays or CT scan.[4][5] Symptoms may include numbness, weakness, abnormal reflexes, or loss of bladder or bowel control.[2] Neck or back pain is also common.[3] Symptoms may be brief or persistent.[3] Some do not develop symptoms until a few days after the injury.[3]
