Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical syndrome caused by the release of intracellular substances into the extracellular fluid and blood circulation after the destruction of rhabdomyocytes due to various etiologic factors.
When the muscle is damaged and then dissolved, the myocytes release a large amount of myoglobin into the peripheral blood circulation. Since the diameter of myoglobin is larger than the diameter of the pore of the glomerular filtration membrane, a large amount of myoglobin accumulates in the kidneys, which triggers the impairment of renal function, which leads to the inability of the body’s acid to be discharged from the body, triggering acidosis.
Anaerobic exercise, due to the lack of oxygen supply to the body, resulting in anaerobic cell metabolism to generate lactic acid, lactic acid generated will aggravate acidosis, and in severe cases, can even be life-threatening.
When rhabdomyolysis occurs, do not treat it on your own, but go to the hospital in time, under the guidance of a professional doctor to avoid delaying or aggravating the condition.
