Daily care methods for polio

Polio is a common disease, and many patients do not know how to deal with it. Polio is a disease that seriously affects children's physical development, causing physical and psychological pain to children. The harm is very great. So what are the daily care methods for polio? Let's introduce them to you in detail below.

1. Dietary care: Give children nutritious, high-protein, high-fat, and multi-vitamin foods to increase the body's resistance.

2. Reconstruct the coordination of limb movements: Nurses should guide children to concentrate, do joint extension movements, passively complete joint extension movements, and let children do reciprocating flexion and extension swing training, gradually learn to control the swing direction, and rebuild limb movement coordination.

3. Prevent joint adhesion: Nurses should guide children to perform large-scale exercises in all directions without being fixed to enhance blood circulation in local tissues, observe blood circulation in the extremities, and increase the amount of exercise to prevent joint adhesion.

4. Restore and improve joint mobility: Active exercise should allow children to move their joints as far as possible. For children with weak muscles and joint contractures, nurses should assist with passive movements in all directions to enhance muscle and local blood circulation, so as to restore and improve joint mobility.

5. Training to improve gait: The nurse guides the child to stand up, stand on one leg, move the center of gravity left and right, step slowly, and then practice walking on flat roads, ramps, and up and down stairs. Pay attention to keeping the body upright as much as possible, not swinging the body, maintaining a balanced gait, and making full use of the postoperative muscle strength and balance, joint stability or limb length improvement to improve gait, prevent deformation, and achieve the purpose of correction.

The above is an introduction to the daily care methods for polio. I wonder if you understand them clearly? In life, we must learn more and pay attention to the prevention of the disease. As long as we do a good job of prevention, I believe it will greatly reduce the occurrence of the disease and keep the disease away from children.
