Q

non-paralytic polio

A

aseptic meningitis- just like the minigitis cuased by other enterovirus. Have the symptoms of abortive poliomyelitis but perhaps a bit more severe and have symptoms of neck, back and limb.

Q

paralytic polio

A

have symptoms of abortive poliomyletitis, defervescence and then symptoms of paralytic poliomyelitits 2-5 days later. Adults don’t have biphasic course but prolonged prodromal stage. The virus travels through the peripheral nerves to the CNS or crosses the blood brain barrier for the entry into the CNS. The virus replicates in the motor neurosn of the anterior horn of the brain stem. The destruction of the neurons also leads to inflammation and influx of immune cells. The virus does not replicate in the muscle.
