Can a girl with polio get pregnant?

Polio is caused by a viral infection and is an infectious disease, but it is not hereditary. Future generations will be less likely to be infected with polio.

From a medical perspective, a key concern is the size of the birth canal. Women who contract polio in childhood may have growth problems in one or both legs, which can affect the normal growth of the pelvis. This will cause a blockage in the birth canal, which can often make it difficult or impossible for a normal-sized baby to pass through the birth canal. The size of the birth canal is usually assessed by X-ray, but it may also be assessed by other methods. This decision needs to be made by the chief physician. Understanding the birth canal and the size of the fetus is a particularly important overall plan, otherwise you can choose a cesarean section.

How is polio treated?

1. Preventing reinfection during treatment is the most basic protection; poliomyelitis is a subacute disease caused by poliomyelitis virus infection, also known as poliomyelitis. Virus infection is mainly transmitted by food pollution or droplets. If you still fail to pay attention to its contagiousness during treatment, and do not care about hygiene and healthy diet, not only will you not be able to get good rehabilitation treatment, but the complications of polio will turn into paralysis, and treatment will be very difficult.

2. Correct first, then diagnose and then perform surgical treatment; in the early stages of the disease, the patient's muscles atrophy and body paralysis occur, but no deformities occur. With the increase of the current medical history, various deformities gradually appear in the middle and late stages. Joint deformities or even secondary pathological changes such as pelvic tilt and scoliosis make it difficult for physicians to determine the indications for surgical treatment.

The bone deformity can be corrected first, and then the muscle tension balancing surgery can be performed. It is believed that while the soft tissue surgery is performed, a bone surgery in the same direction or on the same side can be performed in the first stage. Convenient surgical treatment is also a benefit of early treatment. If there is still a group or even one muscle with grade 4 muscle tone in the body of a person with complete paralysis, doctors can use it to replace the key function.
