Question
An unfortunate two-year-old child has contracted pediatric paralysis. What exactly is the post-paralytic syndrome in pediatric paralysis, and how should care be provided?
Answer
Post-polio syndrome is a severe disabling condition that leads to permanent physical disabilities in children. This situation can affect a child’s life and development. It is recommended to seek professional rehabilitation training at a hospital’s rehabilitation department. The main goal of rehabilitation training is to restore or compensate for the lost motor functions of post-paralytic syndrome in pediatric paralysis patients, thereby improving the daily activities of the upper limbs and the standing and walking functions of the lower limbs, and strive to achieve self-care.
