I think its a proximal bicep tendon tear. Messing with a **** tire. I hit the gym today and did curls and could tell I needed to stop. Then an hour later I went to grab a tire and heard what sounded like 2 pops. Pain shout thru my upper body for about 20 seconds. I do have Dr appt in morn at 8 am. Right now im not in much pain. Feels like a Charley horse if I use my arm wrong is about it. My muscle is definitely different now though. How many of you have had this and didnt do surgery? How are you doing now?

I tore my distal bicep tendon last year. Sounded like bubble wrap getting popped when I did it and my bicep went up my arm about 3”. My 1 year surgery date is actually tomorrow. Surgery went well and really wasn’t that painful. I was able to do some rifle hunting last season, just couldn’t lift anything over a few pounds for a few months (if I tried it let me know). I just starting hitting the gym again about 4 weeks ago and so far so good on getting my strength back.

Was loading feed out of trailer and I tore my tendon off the bone in my forearm, my bicep went up on the edge of my shoulder. Drove myself to the hospital with my arm on top of my head, that was only way it did not hurt. Old sawbones had to get a long pair of needle nose pliers and pull the bicep back down and reattached the tendon to a drywall screw he drove in my forearm bone. (Floresville hospital has a Mccoys lumber yard across from them for emergency supplies)He had to make a big cut to get them pliers up in there. I was gimped up for a while. I dont recommend getting worked on in Floresville, I knowed of a man that went in there for a nut cutting and come out missing his appendix. they is a animal doctor up in the holler a ways that does more better work.
