A member asked:
Does getting a massage once a week cause rhabdomyolysis? if so, is massage dangerous? once myoglobin goes to nephrons, it never leaves does it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A normal person getting a typical massage once a week or once a day, does not get rhabdomyolysis from a massage. Therefore, a massage is not dangerous in that regard.
