Torn (ruptured) Biceps

ad

Has anyone experienced this yet? Was lifting the other day and during pull ups and lat pull downs i think i tore the long head of my left biceps. only partial tear it seems but was strange to say the least. anyone have any experience with this? been to the doc about it? how long does it heal etc. (I've done a little home work i know that a complete rupture needs surgery etc etc. No im not going to the doc about it so save your breath on that one.) Thanks

double edge sword here...??? I tore something in my shoulder. I have many doctor friends and basically its like this. What are they going to do at the hospital? Wrap it up tell you not to use it for 6 monthss. Well guess what. wrap it and dont use it for 6 months and save your money. If you know its a complete tear from the bone you need surgery PEROID. if its a tear of the muscle it will heal and it sucks but thats a reality you have to find out about. you need to know what it is and then you can make informed decisions. until then bro, if you can affort gear you can afford a doc visit to find out what it is. and they should be able to tell you without MRI.
