Bicep Tendonitis can be an infuriating injury which causes its sufferers pain and dysfunction in everyday life or during exercise. In todays video I break down what bicep tendonitis is, how to fix it and why you are doing the exercises I have chosen.
If you have pain in your upper arm or shoulder, you may have irritated your biceps tendon, a condition known as biceps tendonitis. The pain may limit your shoulder motion and make performing normal work and recreational tasks difficult or impossible. Physical therapy for biceps tendonitis can be helpful to decrease pain, improve shoulder strength and range of motion (ROM), and improve functional mobility and use of your arm.
Your biceps muscles are located in the front of your upper arms. They course from two heads (hence the name "biceps") near your shoulder joint. The short head of the biceps arises from the coracoid process of your shoulder blade. The long head of the biceps originates from the supraglenoid tubercle of your shoulder joint and is encased in a synovial sheath. This sheath provides lubrication to the tendon and allows it to glide and slide normally in the front of your upper arm. The biceps muscle travels down your upper arm and inserts on the radial tuberosity of your forearm.
While the function of your biceps is to turn your forearm into a palm up position, it also works to help move your shoulder joint and assists the rotator cuff muscle group in stabilizing the front of your shoulder. Overloading of the biceps tendon at your shoulder or elbow may cause biceps tendonitis.
