Tumor: Tumor growth will press on the spinal cord or tumors in the spinal cord will lead to fracture, which presses on the spinal cord and causes paraplegia; 4. Metastatic tumors: Metastatic tumors press on the spinal cord, which causes paraplegia; 5. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM): TCM believes that paraplegia is caused by damage to the marrow, and the tendons and veins lose their moistening;
