These methods are very effective in treating sequelae of polio!

Poliomyelitis can cause a lot of harm to patients, especially some patients. Although the disease has been cured, it has left sequelae and the harm of the disease continues, so late recovery and physical therapy are very important.

1. The main purpose of rehabilitation training is to restore or compensate for the lost motor function of patients with sequelae of polio, thereby improving the daily activities of the upper limbs and the standing and walking functions of the lower limbs, so as to achieve self-care and return to society as soon as possible. The contents of regular training mainly include training to enhance muscle strength, training to expand the range of joint motion, and the making and use of orthotics. And post-operative limb function recovery training.

2. Massage therapy: Parents usually roll back and forth on the paralyzed part of the child for about 8 minutes, massage and relax the joints for about 3 minutes, rub the relevant spine and limbs 5 to 6 times, and rub the local area to warm it up, once a day or every other day.

3. Physical therapy: For the treatment of sequelae of polio, hydrotherapy, electrotherapy, phototherapy, etc. can be used to relax the patient's muscles and enhance blood circulation.

4. There are also some traditional Chinese medicine treatment methods, such as cupping, fumigation and external application of Chinese medicine.

5. The patient's deformed limbs can be fixed with wood boards or plaster, and corrected through surgery.

6. Master the appropriate training scale, quantity and method. The training volume is not enough and there is no obvious effect. Excessive training can cause limb damage, such as muscle strain, joint swelling, fracture and dislocation, etc. Therefore, we must grasp this scale and the training volume should be appropriate.

7. Training should be done step by step and not too hasty. The number of activities increases from little to many, the range of joint movement increases from small to large, and the force used increases from light to heavy. Only by gradually increasing the amount of training can good results be achieved.
