Question
The baby can walk but has weak left limb movement. Is there any assistive device that can tie the left leg to help with walking?
Answer
Polio is a disease caused by acute infection with the polio virus. This infection leads to weakness in the limbs of the affected spinal cord segments, manifested as limited or widespread, asymmetrical or symmetrical, sensory loss, and flaccid paralysis. For children with muscular dystrophy, treatment is still needed after adulthood.
Traditional Chinese medicine and rehabilitation therapy methods are effective in improving clinical symptoms such as muscle atrophy, weakness, lumbar pain, and intolerance to labor. In addition, assistive devices can be used to help patients walk with their left limb. It is important to avoid excessive exercise during daily activities to prevent excessive load on the affected limb.
