Patient's question:
When a 23-year-old woman suffers from polio, her left leg seems unable to function. The quadriceps muscle bulges on the left thigh, noticeably lower than the right thigh, but both legs cannot lift her foot to walk. Placing the right hand on the left knee to treat polio, how much does it cost?Doctor's answer:
The only effective method for treating childhood poliomyelitis sequelae is orthopedic surgery. Over 95% of patients with poliomyelitis sequelae can achieve good therapeutic effects through surgical treatment, completing functional recovery to varying degrees. The growth and development of limbs in patients with poliomyelitis sequelae often recur with age. New deformities continue to worsen the condition, such as walking on flat feet, walking instability; hand pressure on the leg, walking gradually reappearing in the original gait.
