Polio is a very terrible disease and an acute infectious disease. Polio can cause great harm to people's physical and mental health. Only when parents know the early symptoms of polio can they give timely treatment for polio. So, what are the symptoms of polio? The following will introduce the early symptoms of polio, which depend on the type of polio.

1. The early symptoms of polio are divided into two types: absence seizures and myoclonic seizures.

The symptoms of poliomyelitis are: sudden onset of staring or rolling eyes, dazed state, interruption of activities and speech, dropping objects held, not responding to calls, returning to normal after about ten seconds. Myoclonic seizures: short (12 seconds) myoclonus of the face, upper limbs, neck, and trunk.

2. Localized attacks of early symptoms of polio.

A localized attack of polio. The early symptoms of polio are short convulsions or numbness and tingling in the corner of the mouth, eyelids, fingers, toes, or one side of the face and extremities. The convulsions can sometimes spread from the fingers to the upper limbs and then to the opposite side.

3. Early symptoms of polio: major attacks

The early symptoms of polio include sudden loss of consciousness, falling down, sometimes with a shout, respiratory arrest, foaming at the mouth, tonic convulsions, bitten lips and tongue, and incontinence that recovers after five to ten minutes.

4. Psychomotor seizures, an early symptom of polio.

Similar to absence seizures, but lasting more than 1 minute. Or presenting a variety of hallucinations, illusions, unconscious movements, such as sucking, chewing, smacking lips, undressing, unbuttoning, etc. This is one of the early symptoms of polio.

Through the above introduction to the symptoms of polio, I believe everyone has a certain understanding. I would like to remind everyone that if you find that your child has polio, you should go to a professional and regular hospital for treatment in time. Do not seek medical treatment blindly, so as not to delay the child's condition.
