What are the symptoms of polio sequelae?

Polio is one of the diseases we heard about the most when we were young. It is also one of the most common diseases among children. The treatment of polio is very important for children. If polio is not treated in time, it is easy to cause polio sequelae. So what are the symptoms of polio sequelae? Let's introduce them in detail.

The main symptoms of post-polio syndrome are as follows:

1) Limb muscle atrophy and weakness, limb deformity, difficulty in upper and lower limb movement, joint instability, unequal length of bilateral limbs, etc.

2) Hip joint contracture, flexion or looseness, or even hip dislocation. Knee joint flexion deformity, inward or outward bending of the lower leg are all symptoms of polio sequelae.

3) Symptoms of polio sequelae also manifest in the feet, which may also develop various deformities, such as the heel or toes not touching the ground when walking, or the foot may be inverted and the person may walk on the outside of the instep.

4) In addition, deformities may also occur in other parts of the body, such as deformities of the upper limbs, curvature of the spine, tilt of the pelvis, etc.

Through the above understanding of the symptoms of polio sequelae, we know that the harm of polio to patients is obvious, but many people do not know about the sequelae. The above is an introduction to the symptoms of polio sequelae. I hope that after introducing it to everyone, you will have a better understanding of the symptoms of polio sequelae.
