Hi Your spouse suffered back injury, has no fractures but is feeling numbness and tingling in arms and legs. In my opinion this situation arises when when there is a particular type of injury in the neck or there might be traumatic Disc prolapse in neck and back. I suggest you get one MRI of neck to rule out any major soft tissue injury.
