Abdominal binder has not been mentioned in 2 months of rehab hospital, I will ask. So, If I understand you correctly, many c5 CSIs have weak expiratory force and no voice. My Dad's case is not uncommon, and the solution is PT, ?binder, and TIME, TIME, TIME, Let me know if I have it, In Him, Bo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 27, 2010 8:48 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Quiet vs Loud Hi Bo, the healing process differs greatly among those with spinal cord injuries. The nerves to your Dad's diaphragm were damaged, thus the quiet voice. As time passes, with good physical therapy and some return function his voice should become stronger. Ask his doctor about an abdominal binder to lift the diaphragm and support it. His physical therapist should be advising you on this and whether it may work with your Dad.

It that typical of C5 level quadriplegia? Many of you have higher injuries. Do you have enough expiratory force to create voice?

What is causing the pain in his shoulder? I ask because I have a two finger subluxation in my right shoulder, and it's very painful. All the arm braces I have tried, cause pain somewhere else.
