Bicipital Tendinosis- Causes of Anterior Shoulder Pain

Bicipital tendinosis refers to the inflammation or degeneration of the tendon of the biceps muscle, typically caused by overuse or repetitive strain.

This condition often affects athletes or individuals who engage in activities requiring frequent overhead motions, like lifting or throwing.

Symptoms include pain in the front of the shoulder, tenderness, and weakness.

Treatment options, usually involve rest, ice, and anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain and swelling. Physical therapy exercises to strengthen and stretch the muscles around the shoulder can also be beneficial. In more severe cases, a healthcare provider might recommend corticosteroid injections under ultrasound guidance or, occasionally, surgery to repair the damaged tendon.

Prevention strategies, include proper warm-up exercises, avoiding repetitive overhead activities, and ensuring good technique in sports and other physical activities. Regular strength training and stretching exercises can also help maintain shoulder health and prevent the onset of tendinosis.
