I tore my bicep playing tennis. Haven t to play in 4 or 5 weeks. I ve gone out to courts 2 times and hit about 120 serves each time.I had no problem but steal afford to try and play.I have a knotty ridge bout an inch and ahalf long on top of the bicep. what kind of problems am I looking at.
Spasm or blood collected outside tissues was not treated properly post injury that gave rise to knotty ridge. You have many options at home and maybe you tried these too. Hot and cold treatment, stretching, massage etc. Outside home Physiotherapists, electric simulations etc. are used. To my patients I have treated with simple, safe, economic things with positive results all my life. That's by Ayurveda. First they are given turmeric powder Chat Doctor.  Then massage with Ayurveda's Mahanarayan tel (oil). It's smelly but effective. Mahanaryan oil is commonly available in India. Elsewhere, get online. I prefer to tell patients to first do hot fomentation by hot water or water bag and then genitally massage over knot and nearby areas. Continuous massage over a month or two and turmeric will show you what you expect. This oil will strengthen the muscles. It may be applied on joints too for strength. It will smoothen the knot. After about two hrs or more of massage, hot water bath is advised. Lesser smelly oils like Malaya liniment is available, but is not as effective.  Aha GGUL tablets of classic ayurvedic preparation is also herbal
