Rhabdomyolysis: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatments




Rhabdomyolysis

Rhabdomyolysis is a serious syndrome due to muscle injury directly or indirectly. This results in the death of muscle fibers and their content leaving the bloodstream. This can lead to serious complications like kidney failure. This means that the kidneys can not get rid of useless and concentrated urine. In rare cases, rhabdomyolysis can also cause death. However, early treatment often brings a good result. Here you need to know about rhabdomyolysis.

Reasons for Rhabdomyolysis

There are many painful and nontraumatic causes of Rhabdomyolysis. In the first category, the reasons include:
•  A crush injury such as an auto accident, falling, or building collapse
•  Long-lasting muscle compression, such as falling due to prolonged stabilization or fainting on a harsh surface during illness or under the influence of alcohol or drug.
•  Electric shock injuries, lightning strikes, or third-degree burns
•  Poison of snake or insect bites
Contraceptive causes of Rhabdomyolysis include:
•  Use of alcohol or illegal drugs such as heroin, cocaine or amphetamine
•  Extreme muscle tension, especially in someone who is untrained athlete; It can also happen in the elite athletes, and it can be more dangerous if there is more muscle mass to break.
•  Use of drugs such as antipsychotics or statins, especially given in high doses
•  Too much body temperature (hyperthermia) or heat stroke
•  Trembling or trembling shakes
•  Metabolic disorders such as diabetic ketoacidosis
•  Due to the lack of enzyme of congenital muscle such as muscular disease or Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy
•  Viral infections such as flu, HIV or herpes simplex virus
•  Bacterial infection leading to toxins in tissues or bloodstream (sepsis)
•  In the previous history of Rhabdomyolysis, the risk of rhabdomyolysis increases again. Read More
