ABSTRACT
A muscle strain develops when a muscle lengthens or is torn. This would be frequently caused by muscle exhaustion, abuse, or misuse. Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage (EIMD) is defined based on indicators appearing soon after initiating an exercise session and continues for up to 14 days after the end of the session. Muscle damage from trauma, inherited genetic illnesses, pathology or complete circumstances are highly common and cause significant socio-economic consequences. Athletes care about EIMD-related loss of muscle strength and discomfort since they can affect their performance significantly. This current review is intended to highlight the updated findings and its present preventive and management strategies. The review also discussed the pathophysiology behind EIMD in detail to highlight the understanding points regarding EIMD. The frequency of EIMD following exercise must are linked with strength training, and muscle strain as measured by an increased level of serum kinase (CK). the percentage of tissue micro-injuries. EIMD is quite frequent among athletes and also among the general population. This review has discussed the available diet and nutrition to prevent such EIMD and tackle, it if EIMD sets in. Finally, this current review has covered EIMD from all the phases and recommendations have been made for further study, especially in clinical trials.
