The formation of polio is usually caused by a poliovirus infection. Polio is also known as poliomyelitis and this disease often occurs in children between the ages of 6 months and 3 years. Polio is an infectious disease caused by a neurotropic virus that first invades the respiratory and digestive systems and then invades the central motor nerve cells through the bloodstream. This disease is a serious infectious disease that is dangerous to human health. The main mode of transmission of this disease is the fecal-oral route, and the feces of patients and carriers of the virus during the acute phase is an important source of viral infection. Poliovirus is a neurophilic virus. When it infects the human body, it invades the motor neurons of the brain and spinal cord, weakening the muscles innervated by these nerves and leading to quadriplegic paralysis. The location and severity of the paralysis depends on the distribution of the invaded neurons. The motor nerves in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, including the brainstem, have a specific attraction to this virus, which causes damage to the neurons, culminating in generalized muscle dysfunction. It is recommended that when this disease is present prompt intervention and treatment should be undertaken to minimize the damage caused by this disease.
