Can polio be cured?

Poliomyelitis is an acute infectious disease that harms health. Patients are generally children aged 1 to 6 years old. The main symptoms of this disease are fever. In severe cases, there will be limb pain and slow paralysis, which will have a great impact on the child's future living and learning abilities. So, can polio be cured? I hope the following treatment methods can help you.

1. Physical therapy: such as ultrashort wave, drug ion introduction, sunbathing, infrared, hot compress, electrical stimulation therapy, massage, acupuncture, acupoint injection, catgut implantation, hyperbaric oxygen, etc.

2. Drug treatment: such as galantamine, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, methoxazole, ATP and blood dilator injection drugs. Traditional Chinese medicine includes Sancai Decoction, Buyang Huanwu Decoction, etc.

3. Medical sports training: According to the location and degree of paralysis of the patient, special medical gymnastics, passive exercise (for patients with muscle strength level 0-1), assisted exercise (for patients with muscle strength level 2-3), active exercise (for patients with muscle strength above level 3) are performed. Resistance exercise can also be used.

4. Surgical treatment: Indications: patients should be over 5 years old and be able to cooperate with doctors in examination and functional training; the course of the disease should generally be more than 2 years after the onset of the disease, but some patients (soft tissue surgery) can be treated earlier. Contraindications: patients with balanced muscle paralysis without deformity; patients with mild muscle paralysis, muscle strength above level 4 or mild limb deformity that does not affect function or shortening within 2 cm; patients with extensive muscle paralysis accompanied by multiple severe deformities, flail legs. Surgical methods include muscle transfer, tendon lengthening or release, joint fusion, pelvic osteotomy, diaphysis lengthening, epiphysis lengthening, spinal correction, etc.

The above-mentioned treatment methods for polio can be cured. We clearly know that polio can be cured as long as it is treated and discovered early. However, after the symptoms appear, we still need to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment, and then use the secret prescription for treatment under the doctor's advice. In order for the children to recover as soon as possible and live and study like other normal children, we hope that parents can find the problem in time and treat it in time.
