Hello

I have studied your case

You may need to consult neurologist for further care.
You need to keep watch on progression of paralysis.
Usually there is ascending paralysis.
Prognosis depends on stage of infection and immunity of patient.
If neurologist is not available you can consult MD internal medicine.


Wish you good health

Take care.
