Was in the pool all day yesterday and spent a half hour launching kids. On the third launch of one who was a bit bigger than I should have been throwing, I got a sharp pain in my bicep. I can move the arm, but there's a little pain and limited movement. The part that kind of worries me, my bicep is sort of hanging to the side and I can't flex it. There's no swelling or discoloration, but I did stay in the pool for a couple hours after it happened. Got a doctor appointment, thinking it's just strained, but does it sound torn to anyone? Never had a muscle tear, so the non-flexing part is kind of worrying me.
Sounds like a ruptured bicep tendon. That happened to me.
