Creatine Kinase (CK) is a test that measures the levels of an enzyme called creatine kinase in your blood. This enzyme is found in various tissues of your body, especially in your muscles and heart. The CK test is commonly used to assess muscle damage or injury.
When your muscles are injured or damaged, such as during a heart attack or strenuous exercise, CK is released into your bloodstream. Measuring the levels of CK can determine the extent of muscle damage and monitor your recovery.
The CK test is particularly useful in diagnosing conditions like heart attacks, muscle disorders, and certain types of muscular dystrophy. It can also help identify if muscle pain or weakness is due to overexertion or a more serious underlying condition.
