10 Polio Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #8: Loose or Floppy Limbs
One of the more intriguing symptoms of polio is the way that people with paralytic polio tend to develop loose or floppy limbs. If the condition isn’t treated then the looseness can become more and more serious, eventually leading to full-blown paralysis.
Many patients report that they experience the floppy limbs more severely on one particular side of the body. Either way, this is an indication that the condition is serious and should be treated.
