Experts say that excessive exercise is the main cause; Whether eating crayfish will lead to rhabdomyolysis is still inconclusive. There are only two conjectures: the biological protein contained in crayfish causes allergic reaction, or the feeding environment is polluted.
It is reported that "rhabdomyolysis syndrome" (RS for short) actually refers to the destruction and dissolution of skeletal muscle (most muscle tissues of human body) caused by various reasons, and a large number of substances such as myoglobin and creatine phosphokinase in skeletal muscle cells are released, which will cause biochemical disorders and organ function damage after entering the blood, and even lead to acute renal failure and even death in severe cases.

Etiology of rhabdomyolysis syndrome;
The common clinical reasons are alcoholism, muscle squeezing (such as after massage), excessive exercise, a lot of physical exercise, taking certain drugs (such as statins and quinolones), and exposure to natural poisons (such as toadstools, snake venom, bee stings, etc.). ), metabolic abnormalities (such as hypokalemia, hyponatremia, diabetic ketoacidosis, etc. ) and extreme body temperature (high or low temperature).
In 2009, more than 900 related chemicals were screened from blood and urine samples of patients with Nanjing disease and crayfish in related markets, and no known chemicals causing rhabdomyolysis syndrome were found in crayfish. At present, it is also believed that the occurrence of rhabdomyolysis is related to individual differences, and some patients have susceptibility genes and are inherently sensitive to various pathogenic factors.
A new vision of northern night-rhabdomyolysis caused by eating crayfish after fitness, expert: excessive exercise is the main cause of the disease.
