Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The T4 spinal nerves directly affect sensation around the 4th intercostal space (the area between your 4th and 5th rib), which is generally level with the nipples. Therefore, depending on the severity of their injury, someone with a T4 spinal cord injury may not be able to feel or move anything from their chest down.
Detailed explanation-2: -Significant leg weakness or loss of sensation. Loss of feeling in genitals or rectal region. No control of urine or stool. Fever and lower back pain. A fall or injury that caused the pain.
