my biceps caved in a little with pain after workout why
hello I have received your query and have gone through your physical findings and my diagnosis and treatment advice regarding this would be as follows you said that previous night you have worked out your arms the next day you had pain in anterior shoulder and pain is not constant yes I do suspect it might be a biceps long head tendinitis I am saying this because you had more pain in the anterior shoulder this thing could be because of your heavy workout sudden lifting of weights sudden high tensed overhead activity improper maintenance of posture while workout which could stress your biceps long head which origins from the anterior shoulder blade and lead to pain inflammation tenderness swelling and minimizing activity levels I would say that in your case it might be an acute mild or moderate injury and not severe my advice would be please do break your workout for some days do not perform any overhead activity no external rotations of your shoulder no pulling or pushing using your shoulder apply ice for 15 minutes for two to three times a day until pain and swelling subside if symptoms do not subside please do consult an orthopedic or qualified physical therapist there are many techniques available for further rehabilitation protocols such as soft tissue mobilization iontophoresis ultrasound tens stretchings phonophoresis etc can be used if injury is severe and long term rehabilitation is planned I hope this helps
