Brief Answer:
Biceps tendinitis
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Thanks for the query.
You could be having Biceps tendinitis.
This occurs when you try to lift weights and pains in front of the shoulder.
You can get Xray of the shoulder to look for any Acromioclavucicular arthritis or Impingement.
You could consult a Sports Medicine Specialist for your problem.
Apply ice pack twice a day. Take Tablet Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day for 5 days and Tablet Rabeprazole twice a day before meals for 5 days. Avoid lifting weights.
If the problem does not subside then you get physiotherapy and an MRI done.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
