Why do people become insensitive to stimuli in regions below spinal cord damage?

Your friend suffers damage to her spinal cord. Below the level of damage she cannot feel temperature or pain stimuli on the opposite side of the body. What reason would account for this?

You suffer damage to your dorsal root ganglia of several spinal cord segments. What problems would you expect? Are largely motor or sensory portions affected?

Thank you!!
