A Family Doctor’s Tale – Best Yahoo Answer – SCREW IN SPINE


If a screw went into a persons spine, is there a way it can come back out, and how?


Additional Details
It is what happened to my mom, however, the doctor told her to stay stone still, which only broke the screw and it went deeper, and now she cant feel her lower body.


This is what happened to my mom and caused her to be paralyzed, however the case isnt that bad, so thats why, and the screw brack into the spine accidently by a doctor.

If a screw went into a person spine by accident, you should see a doctor to see if if can be removed.

Any iron screw lodged in the spine can become rusty and should be removed immediately.

If the screw is long and go further inwards, it may injure the spinal cord or nerve.

This may cause paralysis.

The best way is to see an orthopaedic surgeon to have it removed.
