spine damage

Vertebral column trauma

Spine damage is injury to the vertebral column or spinal cord, ranging from herniated discs to paralysis-causing trauma.

The term appears in medical contexts but also describes wear to a book's binding: The old paperback showed spine damage from years of reading.

In video games, spine damage may refer to a specific attack type targeting an enemy's back.
