Hi,

Your problem will be solved after she is examoned by a uerosurgeon. Usually the reconstructive surgeries help to correct deformities, and the nerves that are affected due to polio will need extensive nerve conduction studies to see if they working well.

ONCE THE DAMAGE HAS OCCURED BY THE INFECTION,IT IS NOT REVERSIBLE. YOU SHOULD TAKE GOOD NEURO-REHABILITATION.
