Objectives:The purpose of this study is to report a case of Rhabdomyolysis that occurred after shock related to overworking, presenting myalgia(especially in the neck), muscular weakness, and dark urine.
Methods: A patient diagnosed with Rhabdomyolysis received Korean medical treatment from November 17th to 24th. Clinical improvement was evaluated using a numerical rating scale(NRS), neck disability index(NDI), and laboratory tests which included complete blood count, kidney function, liver function, serum eletrolytes and Creatinine kinase(CK).
Results: After treatment, myalgia, muscular weakness and dark urine each improved. Laboratory results, including CK, had decreased to within normal range.
Conclusions: Korean medical treatment could be effective for Rhabdomyolysis patients. Further extensive studies should be carried out.
