Biceps pain

[thomas8883]

As doing arms in gym today and while I was doing biceps curl I started getting shooting pains on my extensor Carpi radialis longus ( no expert just googled it lol) has anyone had this experience before? it not the first time it happened either not quite sure what to do any suggestions???

[thomas8883]

Or it brachioradialis around that area anyways

[PrettyPlease?]

Just one arm? Any other symptoms? Numbness or tingling? Weakness in that arm? Any weakness when pinching thumb and index finger together?

[thomas8883]

Just the one arm (right) no other symptoms doesn't hurt any other time except for when I pick up heavy things can only describe it as some sort of shooting or spasm pain doesn't stop me doing anything else no pain when pinching fingers

[thomas8883]

No numbness or tingly sensation

I would think its your tendon.
Don't use a ez bar or straight bar, use db's instead and lower the weight,
Its probably inflammation so take some anti-inflammatory and try icing it,
stay away from any skull crushers or similar until its better and stay light.

Thanks for the advice definitely took it on board gonna ice it over the weekend as well just as extra precaution last thing I need is niggly injuries
