Patient's question:
My left shoulder muscle feels a bit uncomfortable. A few days ago in the morning, I suddenly noticed that my left shoulder muscle was atrophying. It's not due to any external injury, and there's no history of hereditary atrophy. I'd like to consult about the cause of the muscle atrophy.Doctor's answer:
Causes of muscle atrophy:1. Cerebral edema, which affects the control of nerves and blood vessels, leading to poor blood circulation and insufficient blood supply, thereby causing muscle atrophy.
2. Nutritional disorders, such as poor appetite or meat deficiency, resulting in cells not receiving adequate nutrition, which in turn leads to muscle atrophy. Patients should seek professional medical examination at an early stage.
