Question
How much does it cost to treat polio complications?
Answer
The only effective method for treating polio complications is through orthopedic surgery. Over 95% of patients with polio complications can regain varying degrees of function and achieve good treatment outcomes after undergoing surgery. The development of limbs in polio complication patients often changes with age, leading to new deformities that can further worsen function, such as toe walking and instability when walking; the hand-pressing-leg walking style may also appear in the existing walking pattern.
