The spinal cord is a long bundle of nerve fibers and nerve cells. It goes from the base of the skull to below the waist. It is protected by the bones of your spine. The spinal cord nerves carry messages between the brain and the rest of the body. For that reason, an injury to the spinal cord is very serious.
