Post-polio residual paralysis occurs due to damage to nerve cells from a past polio infection, leading to long-term muscle weakness. It is not reversible, but symptoms can be managed with proper care. Physiotherapy, muscle strengthening and supportive devices can help improve function and reduce strain. Consult a doctor to plan suitable long-term management.
