Ease Biceps Tendinitis with Physical Therapy

March 19, 2018

The biceps tendon connects the biceps muscle in the upper arm to the elbow. The tendon acts like a tough connective tissue. The inflammation of this tendon is bicep tendinitis. Physical therapy can help reduce pain and regain mobility.

Causes

Some of the causes of biceps tendinitis include:

  • a fall that injures the shoulder
  • excessive weight lifting
  • overuse from recreational and sports-related activities
  • a sudden twisting motion of the shoulder

Symptoms

  1. Pain at the front of the shoulder joint that extends down the arm i.e. the biceps muscle.
  2. Weakness in the shoulder
  3. Decreased range of motion of the shoulder joint
  4. A visible change in the shape and appearance of the front of the arm
