TNC presents several days after IM injections with pain and hypothermia in the affected limbs; TM is a flaccid, symmetrical paraparesis with neurogenic bladder and a sensory level. CSF and neurophysiological studies (EMG and NCV) are very useful for diagnosis. Other entities misdiagnosed as poliomyelitis were: osteoarticular trauma, myopathies and dystrophies, viral myositis, acute cerebellitis, retroperitoneal tumors and upper motor neuron syndromes. Viral studies in stool specimens are essential for the diagnosis of poliomyelitis | |||

Overview
Abortive poliomyelitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause: fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache and sore throat, such as: gastroenteritis, or acute respiratory infection.[1][2]
Non-paralytic poliomyelitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause: fever; headache; myalgia; vomiting; lethargy; and muscle spasms, such as:[2][3]
Paralytic poliomyelitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause: headache, muscle pain; lethargy, muscle weakness, spams and tremors, such as: Guillain-Barré syndrome; traumatic neuritis of the sciatic nerve; transverse myelitis; and West Nile Virus.[2][4][5][6][7][8]
