Post-polio syndrome (PPS) is a condition that affects approximately 25 to 50 percent of people who have previously had poliomyelitis (polio). Although there is no cure for PPS, there are treatments available that can help manage the symptoms and improve the quality of life.

There are three main types of treatment for PPS:

Medication: There are a variety of medications available that can assist in relieving the pain, fatigue, and muscle weakness that are associated with PPS.

Physical therapy: A person who has PPS can work with a physical therapist to develop an exercise program that is tailored to their needs and will help them improve their strength and endurance.

Diet and nutrition: People who have PPS should prioritize maintaining a healthy diet and getting the recommended amount of rest and sleep each night.
