Hello,
I think it is necessary for a detailed evaluation of the situation and an MRI. The fact that you have still feelings and can do movement is a good sign that you will possibly regain full movement and feelings. You need physiotherapy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
