Muscle fatigue does not have a medical term strictly speaking but corresponds, by definition, to a feeling of weakness felt in the muscular tissues, or even a difficulty in soliciting the limbs. It can manifest itself in different members, and at certain times more propitious than others, as following a prolonged effort or an intense effort for example.
Method and route of administration ARNICALME
Sublingual route
In children from 18 months to 6 years old: dissolve the tablet in a little water before taking, because of the risk of misdirection. as soon as age permits, allow the tablets to dissolve under the tongue.
You can also order the homeopathic complex Arnica L1 Lehning , homeopathic medicine recommended in the homeopathic treatment of contusions, bruises and sprains after a shock and aches after an effort or the flu.
In traditional medicine, the use of mountain arnica is described in European pharmacopoeias for its use as an anti-irritant for the treatment of pain and inflammation resulting from minor trauma such as hematomas, bruises, boils, bites insects or superficial phlebitis venous insufficiencies. However, these uses are not all supported by scientific studies.
In prevention, you can buy Arnica montana 9CH Boiron homeopathic granules , practical in case of blows or bumps for children.
In some cases, intense muscle fatigue may be called muscle asthenia (muscle exhaustion). Not to be confused with muscle fatigability which corresponds more to a muscle which, from the start, is not able to provide the required effort.
In this case, we advise you to contact your healthcare professional so that he can rule out myasthenia (chronic neuromuscular disease which results in weakness of the muscles of the limbs and very heavy fatigue) or muscular atrophy (decrease in volume muscle that does not allow it to provide the required effort).
