Post polio

2020-04-24 07:07:31
I had polio at 1 month age but recovered overtime. I don't depend on crutches and wheel chair to walk but limp slightly. I haven't gotten leg weakness last December 2019. But I have been experiencing pain in my polio affected leg hip and thigh since 5 months. Is it post polio ?
