On And Off Pain In Bicep Without Any Injury. Take Low Dose Medication For Hypertension
I have a pain in my left bicep. It comes on now and then. I haven't hurt myself that I'm aware. Just worried that I could have a clot or something and could lead to a stroke?? I'm 63 in good shape. I work out on my total gym 2-3 times a week. I walk 6 miles a day when the weather permits. Am I being overly concerned? I do have hypertention and am on a very low dose. Thanks for any response, Mona
I am so sorry to hear about this on/off pains in the biceps. For sure, it is not stroke because stroke often presents with loss of movement or sensation. This pain may be related to overuse like tendinitis. I will suggest you get it evaluated and managed accordingly. a primary care physician would make a good start.
I hope this addresses your query fully. Feel free to ask for clarifications and more information if need be. I wish you well. Thanks for utilizing our services, we very much appreciate it. Dr. Ditah, MD.
