Injury at this level of the spinal cord might injure the phrenic nerve. This nerve supplies the diaphragm, which permits inspiration and expiration. If this nerve is damaged, the impulses no longer reach the diaphragm and the diaphragm stops contracting.
The thoracic diaphragm, more commonly referred to as simply the diaphragm, is a combination of muscle and tendon that allows you to inhale and exhale. It sits just below your lungs and is shaped kind-of like the top of a dome.
