What are the principles of polio treatment?

Poliomyelitis is a common disease in life. The treatment of polio cannot be carried out blindly. Only by following the treatment principles of polio can polio be treated correctly and the ideal treatment effect can be achieved. So, what are the treatment principles of polio? The following experts will introduce you to it in detail.

Principles of polio treatment:

Theoretically or in principle, the treatment of paralysis is to correct the bone deformity first, and then perform muscle balance surgery. It is recommended to complete the bone surgery on the same side or the opposite side at the same time as the soft tissue surgery. Although the indications for surgery are difficult to determine, as long as the patient can make progress on the original basis after surgery, such as walking with crutches or walking without crutches, treatment should be actively carried out.

Since severe polio causes severe loss of muscle strength and is often accompanied by obvious deformities, it is difficult to achieve ideal results with one or two surgeries. Therefore, patients must develop a reasonable treatment plan through careful muscle strength tests.

Poliomyelitis sequelae is a serious disabling disease that results in lifelong limb disability in children. It affects the children's life, growth and development, not only causing physical deformities but also causing serious obstacles for children to take care of themselves, study and enter society, causing physical and mental damage to children.

Through the above understanding of the principles of polio treatment, the treatment of this disease should be based on the overall obstacles and needs of the children, so that they can receive comprehensive rehabilitation treatment, that is, the children should receive rehabilitation care and treatment not only physically but also mentally and socially, so that they can live, study and work like healthy people. Comprehensive rehabilitation generally includes medical rehabilitation, educational rehabilitation, vocational rehabilitation and social rehabilitation.
