At the beginning of the article, the editor would like to ask
" Liu Genghong girls" who were crazy about practicing a while ago.
Are all of you insisting on aerobics?
Everyone wants to become thinner, more beautiful and healthier
Waistcoat lines and long legs are coveted
Girls who can persist in aerobics are "warriors"
However
Recently, Ms. Zhu from Zhejiang Province jumped out of the dance A big problem
On weekdays, Ms. Zhu always sits when she goes to work and rarely has time to move. In order to lose weight and keep fit, Ms. Zhu started to do aerobics along with videos every night when she got home from get off work.
At first, Ms. Zhu only danced for 2 hours a day.
She did not feel any physical discomfort.
Recently, she increased the intensity of her aerobics.
Unexpectedly, she almost endangered her life!
After she started to increase the amount of exercise, Ms. Zhu developed symptoms of muscle soreness in her lower limbs. She didn’t notice it at first, until the symptoms continued to worsen, and even her urine turned “soy sauce color”!
This frightened Ms. Zhu.
She hurried to the hospital for a physical check.
After examination, Ms. Zhu’s blood creatinine, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and other indicators were all seriously high. The doctor considered that she was suffering from The disease is rhabdomyolysis syndrome , which means that her muscles have "dissolved".
In recent years, there have been many cases of rhabdomyolysis caused by excessive exercise.
It has been reported that 24-year-old Xiaoqi (pseudonym) went to the gym to take a "spinning" class in order to lose weight. She thought the spinning bike was very relaxing, but she was exhausted after riding it for 5 minutes. But she still gritted her teeth and persisted in riding a spinning bike for 50 minutes.
When Xiaoqi went home that night, both of Xiaoqi’s legs were swollen and hurt when touched. When she got up the next day, her legs were sore and weak, and she even peeed soy sauce-colored urine! Also was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis syndrome.
What exactly is rhabdomyolysis syndrome?
Director Shen Beili of the Department of Nephrology, Zhengzhou People's Hospital explained:
Rhabdomyolysis is an acute and potentially fatal syndrome, a series of symptoms caused by necrosis of striated muscle cells due to various reasons.
When 100g of muscle is damaged and myosin level exceeds 5-15 mg/L, the urine color will turn into "soy sauce-colored urine", which means that rhabdomyolysis has occurred and affected kidney function. If you continue to increase the amount of exercise, further kidney damage may occur.
Why is rhabdomyolysis syndrome easily caused after exercise?
People who do not exercise often
Sudden large-scale exercise
will make the muscles of the body unable to withstand the pressure
which will lead to rhabdomyolysis syndrome
Local high-intensity training will cause ischemia, ischemia and hypoxia of striated muscle cells, and a large amount of lactic acid accumulation. .
If water and electrolytes are not replenished in time during exercise, the muscles will be prone to ischemia and hypoxia. During reperfusion, myocyte sodium and calcium ion overload and other mechanisms will cause cell swelling or death, and cell integrity will be destroyed.
At this time, the microenvironment in the blood changes, and the dissolved and broken cell contents are released outside the cells and enter the blood circulation. In a short period of time, a large amount of increased myoglobin is filtered through the glomerulus to renal tubules , causing tubular blockage. In severe cases, it can lead to multiple organ failure and even be life-threatening.
What are the symptoms of rhabdomyolysis syndrome?
Most patients will basically have three typical symptoms:
Muscle pain
Urine is a brown soy sauce color,
or even red wine color
Muscle weakness
However, the early symptoms of most patients are not typical
There will only be some slight muscle soreness
Weakness or soreness, etc.
It is often mistaken for fatigue after exercise.
If the above conditions also occur Vomiting, dehydration, or fever, Arrhythmia , Chest tightness , shortness of breath, oliguria, anuria, lower limb and even back muscle conditions must be paid high attention to. If these conditions occur, you must go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
These people are more likely to suffer from
"exercise rhabdomyolysis syndrome":
long-term climbers;
marathon runners;
gym athletes;
heavy manual workers;
Usually lack of exercise, sudden heavy exercise overload Sportsman.
So how can ordinary people
exercise to avoid being "trickled"?
For ordinary people who do not exercise much, exercise must first be moderate , and at the same time pay attention to quality . It is best to exercise for one day, and then rest for one day, which can give the muscles a rest and adaptation process.
If you suddenly increase the amount of exercise when you want to lose weight or get in shape, it is also likely to cause muscle damage.
When some ordinary people want to exercise for a marathon, the most important thing to pay attention to is to gradually increase the amount of exercise . You must know the step by step, and when exercising, you should drink more water and properly replenish electrolytes.

reminds:
Whether it is to lose weight or enhance physical fitness, you should first understand your physical condition, choose effective exercise methods that suit you, and implement them as planned. Exercise should be done gradually and appropriately.
