What causes muscle relaxation and what is the difference

The cause of muscle relaxation is more common in patients with disuse atrophy, such as traumatic brain injury, long-term bed rest after surgery, muscle atrophy gradually after inactivity, and it will be very relaxed, disuse atrophy, or problems with the nerves supported by nutrition. This situation occurs if the nerve is broken or damaged after trauma, the nerve damage that innervates the limb is not repaired in time, and the affected limb innervated is not well functioned. In the case of nerve damage, there are many ways, such as a cut injury, the nerve can be surgically anastomosed and sutured.

Other common practices are acupuncture, physiotherapy, and drugs that help to nourish the nerves, which may help. However, some nerve damage, such as general injuries, may recover if the nerve entrapment is relieved. However, if it is a traction injury, it is estimated that it is difficult to recover, and the effect is not good.

The causes of muscle relaxation are mainly seen in the following aspects:

1. Physiological reasons: As people age, muscle content decreases and volume decreases, so many people will have muscle relaxation when they are old. When you are young, you may have more developed muscles and are elastic, but when you are older, your muscles will relax.

2. Joint lesions: Lesions lead to pain in the joints assisted by muscles, arthritis and other reasons that cause the joints to dare not move, resulting in disuse muscle atrophy, resulting in relaxation and thinning;

3. Neuropathy: For example, there is a severe cervical spondylosis, or a severe lumbar intervertebral disc herniation compresses the sciatic nerve, resulting in atrophy, relaxation, and weakness of the innervated muscles;

4. Intracranial lesions: For example, intracranial cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage lead to lesional compression and even necrosis of the nerve center innervating muscles, resulting in muscle relaxation.

Causes of muscle relaxation.

1: Caused by severe lack of protein, if the human body's protein is insufficient, it will be **flaccid and inelastic, 2: ** The support force is reduced, fat and muscle are the largest support force, and the human body aging, **, uneven nutrition, lack of exercise and other reasons caused by subcutaneous fat loss, muscle relaxation makes ** lose support and sag;

3: Other factors such as gravity, genetics, mental stress, sun exposure and smoking also transform the structure of **, and finally make ** lose its elasticity and cause relaxation.

4: Subcutaneous fat loss, causing ** to lose support and sagging;

1. Age factor: With age, muscle content decreases and volume decreases, so many people will have muscle relaxation when they are old. When you are young, your muscles are mostly developed and elastic, but when you are older, your muscles will relax.

2. Dietary reasons: mostly caused by a serious lack of protein, when the human body protein content is insufficient, there will be muscle relaxation and no elasticity;

3. Muscle diseases: such as myositis, metabolic myopathy, and muscular dystrophy will lead to muscle relaxation, and patients often have muscle fatigue, muscle pain, tenderness, muscle involuntary tremor and other manifestations;

4. Joint lesions: mainly various arthritis, which can cause pain in the auxiliary muscles around the joints, and limit the movement of the joints, which in turn leads to disuse atrophy of the muscles, resulting in relaxation;

5. Intracranial lesions: cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage will lead to partial paralysis of the limbs, and disuse muscle atrophy will occur, resulting in muscle relaxation;

6. Other factors: such as poliomyelitis, severe cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation and other lesions will compress nerves, affect local muscle movement, and make muscles gradually relax. In addition, radiculitis, gangliitis, plexitis, neuralitis, and peripheral neuritis can cause atrophy, relaxation, and weakness of the innervated muscles when motor nerves are involved.

In the case of muscle relaxation, the following measures can be taken:

Clause. First, first of all, it is necessary to remove the ** that causes this symptom, for example, some patients need to be immobilized for a long time due to serious damage to bones or joints, which leads to muscle relaxation, while some patients are due to nerve damage, resulting in muscle paralysis. For all of the above, the primary disease is first needed.

Clause. Second, after the primary disease, the patient needs to do the corresponding functional exercises under the guidance of the doctor to alleviate this symptom. For example, if the patient has muscle relaxation on the back of the calf, he can do more activities such as dorsal extension and plantar flexion of the ankle joint to enhance the muscle strength of the calf and improve the symptoms.

Clause. 3. Patients need to strengthen nutrition while exercising, and it is recommended that patients eat more foods rich in protein, dietary fiber and vitamins. For example, patients can eat some chicken breast, beef and mutton, or a lot of fresh green vegetables and fruits.

Clause. Fourth, after the patient does relevant exercises and supplements nutrition, it can also cooperate with the corresponding physiotherapy, such as acupuncture, massage, scraping, cupping and other physiotherapy for this.

A complete fitness program should include three aspects: eating (eating), exercising (training), and sleeping (sleeping), and training is composed of three main parts: cardiology, strength, and flexibility. In view of this, I have given a training plan of 5-10 minutes of aerobic warm-up at the beginning, 5-10 minutes of stretching and relaxation at the end, and 40-50 minutes of strength training in between.

Strength training mainly includes: 1) back: pull-ups (pull-ups in front of the neck); 2) Chest:

plank bench press (seated chest press); 3) Legs: Barbell squat (Smith squat); 4) Shoulder: barbell press (dumbbell press); 5) Arms:

barbell curl (dumbbell curl); 6) Abdomen: Sit-ups (supine leg presses). Training Notes:

Training 3 times a week, every other day, about 1 hour each time, practice the whole body, one action for each part, spare action in parentheses, 3 sets of movements, 8-12 times per group, 2 minutes between movements, 30-60 seconds between groups, exhale when exerting force, inhale when relaxing, and move steadily or slowly. It is necessary to gradually increase the weight to increase the adaptability of the muscles and thus respond to the training. Use a machine that can adjust the weight freely for training.

This allows the muscles to respond better to the resistance generated by the device. Because it allows more muscles to participate in the exercise. When doing movements, whether you are lifting or lowering, you must control the movements so that you can concentrate your force and avoid borrowing force.

Diet: Eat small and frequent meals, moderate intake of eggs, milk, and meat. The daily recipe is:

Moderate protein, less fat, high content of carbohydrates. The ratio of the three main nutrients should be around 25 20 55. Staple foods such as steamed buns, noodles, and rice, as well as yams, oats, potatoes, etc., are very high in carbohydrates and can be used as a first choice.

Protein is the most important source of nutrients for muscle growth, and bodybuilders should mainly consume non-fat or low-fat foods, such as skim milk, egg whites, fish, skinless poultry, steak, etc. Sleep: It is best to get 8 hours of sleep every night, and if you have time at noon, you can take another 30 minutes of nap.

By the way, try to schedule the training time in the afternoon to evening period, because the body is at its best in terms of strength and flexibility during this time. Finally, I wish you a speedy and successful fitness! Top 14 tips for building muscle mass:

Heavy weight, low reps, multiple sets, long displacement, slow speed, high density, consistent mental movement, peak contraction, continuous tension, relaxation between sets, more exercise of large muscle groups, protein eating after training, rest for 48 hours, rather light than leave.

1. Ultraviolet rays.

Ultraviolet rays can damage epidermal cells, activate tyrosinase, accelerate the production of pigment, and destroy the moisturizing function of the skin, making dry and wrinkles easy, not only that, ultraviolet rays will also damage the elastic fibers of the dermis, resulting in sagging, leading to wrinkles.

2. Smoking. Smoking will cause the body to ingest a large number of harmful substances, which will accelerate the oxidation and increase the appearance of spots.

3. Long-term sleep deprivation.

Long-term lack of sleep is the main cause of aging, because lack of sleep can easily cause endocrine disorders, which in turn affects the condition, in addition, the appearance of dark circles and dark spots is caused by lack of sleep.

4. Environmental pollution causes aging.

It has a barrier effect on the human body and can protect the human body from external damage, but it is susceptible to environmental influences, such as serious air pollution, which will cause clogged pores, inflammation, spots, etc., and its harm is similar to the situation of unclean makeup removal.

5. Lack of nutrients and insufficient water in the diet.

Lack of water, easy to lose elasticity, cause facial wrinkles, at the same time, nutritional imbalance, malnutrition, lack of proper nutrient supply, will naturally accelerate the phenomenon of aging, if protein is the way to obtain collagen, if protein intake is insufficient, it will be easy to wrinkles, this phenomenon is more common in people.

6. Wrong cleaning method.

In fact, cleaning is to protect yourself, but incorrect cleaning methods will accelerate aging, such as the abuse of exfoliating products, which can easily lead to thin stratum corneum, increase sensitivity, and appear redness. Also, **in a weakly acidic state, if you use too alkaline cleaning**, it will destroy the lipid membrane of **, reduce **water-locking ability, and lead to**easy dryness and aging, even if it is oily**, it is not suitable for washing your face with soap.
