During fitness training, we often hear a word: striatal muscle . The impression of it is mostly in bad situations. In recent years, there have been many reports about rhabdomyolysis : "Someone has caused rhabdomyolysis due to excessively high-intensity training, and is sent to the hospital for rescue!"
For beginners who are new to fitness, or friends who want to start exercising, they may not be very familiar with striatal muscles, but this part of the muscle is the best muscle you should know before fitness training, and it is a guarantee for your training safety.
Today we will explain the rhabdomyolysis carefully. What is rhabdomyolysis? What causes it and how to prevent it? What happens to the body that causes rhabdomyolysis?
1. What is the striated muscle?
According to muscle function and characteristics, our muscles can be divided into: myocardium, skeletal muscle, and smooth muscle.
is easy to understand. Myocardium mainly refers to the muscle of the heart; skeletal muscle is what we often call biceps , quadriceps , pectoralis major muscle, etc.; while smooth muscle refers to the muscles of the organs.
This is divided according to muscle characteristics. In addition, there is also a classification method, which is divided according to morphology, which is divided into: strata and smooth muscle. Among them, skeletal muscle and myocardium have transverse on the surface, so in terms of morphology, they all belong to transverse muscle.
2. What does rhabdomyolysis mean?
Rrabdomyolysis mostly occurs in skeletal muscle, but it is actually the skeletal muscle dissolution. The reason why
is that some factors cause the cell membrane of to wrap muscle fibers is damaged. After is damaged, the substances in the cells, such as: myoglobin , creatine kinase , and a large number of potassium ions , will be quickly released in the blood.
These substances may cause blockage of your renal tubules through the blood circulation, and will also put a great burden on your heart and liver. In severe cases, it may also lead to acute renal failure, heartbeat disorders, etc.
So we see news about rhabdomyolysis on the Internet, most of which are accompanied by rescue, because once it appears, it may be life-threatening, so we prevent rhabdomyolysis, especially if you have fitness training plans.
Typical symptoms of rhabdomyolysis: muscle pain, muscle weakness, brown urine or hematuria. These three situations usually occur side by side.
3. What factors can lead to the emergence of rhabdomyolysis? How should we prevent it?
1. Overwork, excessive fatigue, long-term continuous exercise
This factor is the most common cause of striatum lysis. Most of the news about rhabdomyolysis that we often hear on the Internet also occurs in this situation, especially for beginners who are just new to fitness. In order to achieve the goals of fat loss, shaping and muscle building as soon as possible, they often have a strong desire to train.
will perform a lot of long-term continuous exercise in the gym. has no training experience before, and the muscles have not undergone this intensity training and cannot bear it at once. As a result, the muscles dissolve.
In addition to exercise, rhabdomyolysis is also common in life due to excessive physical labor.
2. Muscles are squeezed for a long time
This situation usually occurs in accidents and disasters, such as: an earthquake causes a building to collapse, people are pressed under the building, and the muscles are squeezed for a long time. At the beginning, this squeeze lasts for several hours or several days without any problem. When the rescue team arrives for rescue, they are still conscious and awake.
But when rescued, the compressed muscles are released. Often within these ten minutes, they slowly lose their vital signs. This is because the compressed muscles are released for a long time, resulting in rhabdomyolysis.
Especially when the compressed muscle is released, the large amount of necrotic muscle tissue of large hreflated material will be suddenly released, which will strongly stimulate the heart and kidneys.
3. Drugs, toxin
Some drugs may also cause rhabdomyolysis, such as: statins, lipid-lowering drugs, generally does not have much side effects in normal people taking it, but if you have the habit of drinking after taking it, and after drinking, it will be very likely to lead to rhabdomyolysis, because statins and alcohol can damage liver function.
In addition, people who are engaged in heavy physical activities are prone to rhabdomyolysis after taking this type of medicine.
So before taking this type of medicine, be sure to follow the doctor's advice and do not use it blindly.
In addition to drugs, toxins like some snakes may also lead to rhabdomyolysis.
4. What should I do if rhabdomyolysis occurs?
When you find that you have typical symptoms such as muscle weakness, muscle pain, hematuria or brown urine during fitness training, you must seek medical treatment in time and go to the hospital for treatment immediately to avoid subsequent renal failure.
In addition, if you cannot seek medical treatment in time, you must replenish a lot of liquids, reduce activities, rest more, and try to supplement alkaline liquids (such as soda water) to neutralize the acidic substances in the blood to alkalize the urine.
