Sequelae of polio

Polio sequelae refer to an acute infectious disease caused by a group of neurophilic viruses. It mainly damages the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord, causing motor nerve fibers to become flaccid and paralyzed. The disease is prevalent in children under 5 years of age, so it is called ldquo; Polio rdquo ;. The sequelae of paralysis are left in a small part, the affected muscles atrophy, and the nerve function cannot be restored, resulting in deformed limbs.
