Two main types of back injury include: 1  Spondylolisthesis: This is a slipping of vertebra that occurs, in most cases, at the base of the spine. 2  Cervical Radiculopathy: Cervical radiculopathy is the damage or disturbance of nerve function that results if one of the nerve roots near the cervical vertebrae is compressed.
Injuries may affect the spinal cord or the roots of the spinal nerves, which pass through the spaces between the back bones (vertebrae) of the spine. 1  The bundle of nerves that extend downward from the spinal cord (cauda equina) may also be injured. Injuries of the spinal cord cause nerve damage or dysfunction in one the following ways: 1  Jarring by a blunt injury (such as a fall or a collision) 2  Pressure (compression) by broken bones, swelling, or an accumulation of blood (hematoma) 3  Partial or complete tears (severing)
