Loss of strength refers to a reduction in one's ability to exert force with their muscles. This can occur due to various factors like aging, injuries, illnesses, nutritional deficiencies, or hormonal changes. Some key reasons for loss of muscle strength are:
Aging: As we grow older, there is a natural decline in muscle mass and strength referred to as sarcopenia. This causes activities to become more challenging.
Injuries: Accidents affecting muscles, joints, bones, ligaments or tendons can lead to immobilization and loss of strength.
Illnesses: Chronic conditions like arthritis, hypertension, diabetes etc. can cause inflammation and reduced muscle strength.
Hormonal changes: Low levels of vital hormones like testosterone, growth hormone etc. can result in loss of lean muscle mass and diminished strength.
Inactivity: Not exercising regularly allows muscles to weaken and lose conditioning. Lack of resistance training accelerates loss of muscle mass.
Poor nutrition: Inadequate protein, vitamins, minerals and calories in diet leads to muscle wasting and impaired strength.
Some symptoms of declining strength are:
- Fatigue when performing routine activities
- Difficulty getting up from chair or climbing stairs
- Heavier or difficult breathing when active
- Loss of balance or coordination
If you notice sudden or rapid loss of strength,
consult a doctor promptly. Timely assessment and intervention can help identify underlying causes and regain normal strength and function through tailored treatment plans including lifestyle changes, physiotherapy, supplements or hormone replacement therapy if needed.
