Hello,
1. **Excessive physical exertion**: Engaging in high-intensity labor or exercise may lead to generalized muscle soreness and fatigue.
2. **Deficiency of Qi and Blood**: When the body experiences Qi and blood deficiency, blood circulation and metabolism slow down. In cold temperatures, blood vessels may undergo irregular constriction.
3. **Nutritional deficiency**: Malnutrition impairs muscle function. Without adequate energy supply, generalized weakness may occur.
4. **Osteoporosis**: A decline in bone calcium content alters bone structure, reducing bone toughness while increasing brittleness.
I hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health and a joyful life!
