Bicep Tendon Injury - Proximal?

[buckley187]

Ok well see a physio last night and after me having a bit of a moan he has agreed that I need to see a consultant. He said that I may just have a steroid injection (something I'm not keen on). I specifically asked for an MRI as I want to know what is exactly wrong with my shoulder/bicep tendon before they stick a needle into me.

I'm still in pain, although not as much but it's a very long winded process!

So that's me at the moment! Thanks for all your responses and for taking the time to look through my posts.

Buckley,

While you are waiting for your MRI and also appointment, are you doing any strengthening work for your rotator cuff muscles? Has the physio checked for posterior capsule tightness and also scapulohumeral rhythm? Please remember that regardless of the MRI or appointment you will need to fixed the stuctures that have been effected by the actual injury. So make sure that you get as strong as you can (safely and non aggravating). The MRI will give you a strcture but you may need help eg. CSInjection to help settle the pain to allow you to strengthen.

Enjoy
