Does An Injured Latissimus Dorsi Muscle Cause Nausea And Dizziness?
Hello, I was diagnosed with a deep contusion of my Latissimus dorsi muscle after a massage therapist went too far trying to break up facia. This was diagnosed as a very severe injury. I have mostly recovered after a couple of months but have been nauseas, light-headed and fatigued ever since. Could the injury cause those symptoms?

Hi,
Muscle injury is not known to cause nausea and vomiting. In few cases if muscle injury is severe with excretion of muscle protein myoglobin through kidney and if there is renal damage it may lead to nausea and vomiting. but this occurs in acute cases and not after months. So we have to rule out other causes such as gastritis. Peasenhall visit physician nearby your area for detailed clinical Examination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
