Abstract
Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical condition characterised by the breakdown of skeletal muscle. It has been attributed to viral infections. We describe a case of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in a young male who presented with rhabdomyolysis. Myalgia and fatigue are common complaints in COVID-19 patients. We suggest that patients with COVID-19 be screened for rhabdomyolysis in order to facilitate early treatment with intravenous hydration, thus preventing complications such as acute kidney injury.
