What Is Rhabdomyolysis, and How Can It Be Prevented and Treated? - #14489
I recently read about rhabdomyolysis, a condition where muscle tissue breaks down and releases harmful substances into the bloodstream, and I want to understand what causes it, what symptoms to watch for, and how it can be treated. Some people say that intense workouts can trigger rhabdomyolysis, but I am unsure whether it only affects athletes or if anyone can develop it. Rhabdomyolysis occurs when muscle fibers break down due to extreme physical exertion, dehydration, trauma, or certain medications. Symptoms include severe muscle pain, weakness, dark-colored urine, and kidney problems. Many doctors recommend hydration, electrolyte balance, and rest to prevent muscle damage. However, I want to know whether certain supplements or dietary changes can help protect muscles from excessive breakdown. For those who have experienced rhabdomyolysis, what treatments worked best for recovery and preventing long-term complications? Would love insights into how to prevent rhabdomyolysis and whether gradual exercise progression reduces the risk.
