Question: I'm scheduled for a total replacement of my left shoulder. Previous I had my left knee replaced in 2007. I'm also having problems with my major joints on my right side. Can this be from Post-Polio Syndrome?

Dr.Bruno’s Response: Joint damage and arthritis are “secondary” to PPS, the result of the original “primary” poliovirus damage that caused long lasting muscle weakness.
