Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I did Bi's yesterday, I woke up today with my arm throbing in the area of the short head of the bicep tendon near the origin. I feels like I was hit by a basball bat. It hurts if I palpate or flex it and my whole arm is all red. I am going to give it a few days rest......Do u guys think I have a small tear, or tendonitis or something.

is there any swelling or a painful bulge above the elbow? if you can't bend at the elbow it may be a distal tear. If it is a tendon sometimes you can hear a snap. Bruising can appear from the middle of the upper arm down toward the elbow. Right now ice is your best friend and do what you said, rest a few days and maybe see a doctor.

My whole arm in the bicep area is swollen, red and hot right now. I have a buldge/lump in the muscle toward the top of my arm, even while I have it fully extended. I am going to give it a few days of ice and so forth, if it doesnt go away, I am going to go to the doctors.....im not so sure they would be able to do too much. I didnt hear and snaps or pops, in fact I felt a bit of dscomfort while I was lifting, and didnt feel much pain until later on in then evening, then it progressivly got worse.

surgery may be the only thing you can do if it's torn. sounds like a tear, because the lump can be from the muscle bundling up due to the fact the tendon cannot keep it taunt. sometimes a dent in your shoulder will appear. if the lump is near your shoulder it can be related to a rotator cuff injury. good luck bro
