CES is caused by damage to the nerves. This can be caused by impingement or pinching of the nerves, compression of the nerves or surgical complications.
When the Cauda Equina nerves are compressed, they can cause lasting or permanent damage as the injury to the nerves is usually irreversible.
Bowel, bladder and sexual function can be permanently affected, with sufferers left with incontinence and sexual dysfunction.
