Thanks for sharing this. I too ruptured my Distal Bicep about 5 weeks ago and it has been really tough to make a decision about surgery as I have great range of motion and very little pain if any with the arm. Two surgeons I consulted with definitely wanted to do the surgery, and if I was in a lot of constant pain or had no function with my arm, I would be first in line for the surgery, but given how things feel, I'm more concerned with having a poor outcome after surgery where I can do less with my arm than I can do now. This far along, do you have any issues or pain when you use your arm? I still get some cramping in the bicep area when I try to lift things (where the bicep would be used) but I hear it begins to fade over time.
question i have a partial tear, how long dd it take for the pain, when doing certain movements, stopped for you? I'm three weeks in.... did you have a partial or full tear?
I tore something in the left shoulder doing some really fast batting cage practice. It was the first batting practice after the winter and went to fast to quick. It would be fine for a bit and then bam in a game and all it took was one swing and really bad pain after just one swing out of know where, so bad it would almost make me want to stop in my tracks from playing. I ended up hitting up the local health food store and got like 3 different natural joint supplements and took them all at once and a bit of doing that the pain and problem was practically non existent
I torn mine 11 weeks ago and I didn’t get surgery. I’m doing under handed pull-ups no problem.
Was yours a tear or complete rupture? And was it your dominant arm?

Retired USAF/biologist gave me a heads up during COVID and I watched the sh*t show and sheep buy the BS! I don't trust a damn thing from them.
