Poliomyelitis

Nonparalytic poliomyelitis
RSS Feeds   Text 
Also known as Aseptic Meningitis, this form of poliomyelitis is observed in about 1 to 2% of individuals infected with the poliovirus. It is a more severe form of the disease that develops approximately 7 to 14 days after exposure to the virus. The early symptoms can be similar to minor polio symptoms but in addition, these may also occur:

 Stiffness in the neck, back and legs

 Muscle pain

 Muscle spasms

 Abnormal skin sensation

These symptoms improve rapidly, usually within 2 to 10 days, with complete recovery.
