The clinical symptoms of rhabdomyolysis include myalgia, tenderness on palpation, weakness, brown urine, fever, myoglobinuria, electrolyte imbalance, and acute renal failure. Rhabdomyolysis can be severe enough to be life threatening. The causes of rhabdomyolysis include alcohol, electrolyte imbalance （potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium depletion）, viral myositis, trauma, connective tissue diseases, drug reaction, toxication, exercise, metabolic diseases, seizures, and hereditary enzyme deficiencies. The exact mechanisms underlying rhabdomyolysis are not fully understood, but it is clear that muscle damage can be caused by direct muscle injury or metabolic inequalities between energy production and energy consumption.展开更多
