Reduced power or strength in one or more muscles is known as muscle weakness. Muscles are a bundle of fibrous, contractile tissues that possess the ability to contract to produce movement. The exchange of signals between the muscle and nervous system takes place at the neuromuscular junction. The muscles are unable to contract normally if the connection between the nervous system and muscles get injured or damaged. This, in turn, leads to muscle weakness. Homeopathic medicines for muscle weakness works very effectively to restore the strength back into the muscles.

Causes of Muscle Weakness
Muscle weakness can arise for various reasons, which include prolonged bed rest, immobilization, lack of exercise, a sedentary lifestyle (if a person doesn’t use muscles, then muscle fibers are replaced by fat and muscles can’t contract effectively), aging. Increased calcium levels in the blood, low sodium levels, pinching of nerves in the spine, and Myasthenia gravis (an autoimmune neuromuscular disorder that causes weakness and fatigue of the muscles.) are some other causes.

Greetings Dr. Sharma,
I have started experiencing marked weakness in my legs. I am fairly active, but am working on healing adrenal fatigue. Energy is not bad, mood is a bit weak in energy. I am deeply concerned with the muscle weakness in my legs as they have always been the strongest part of my body. It feels like I could progress to a wheelchair! I have never experienced this before. I have used Lifewave Patches for 4 and 1/2 months. Doing some acupuncture, other than that nothing has changed in my routine. Initially, I felt the patches were a boost/benefit for me and now I am not so sure.
Thank you kindly for helping me.
