  • Sudden sharp pain, popping sound when lifting object
  • Bruising following pain
  • Difficulty, weakness or pain when pushing off the ground or from a chiar
  • Muscle deformity, ‘bulge of muscle in the arm’

Treatment

The treatment of a biceps tear will depend on the severity and location of the tear. Chiropractic and rehabilitation treatments are valuable in the treatment of a biceps tear.
