How Can Pain In The Biceps Be Treated?

Hi there doc i recently went to the gym with my uncle and didn t stretch and now my biceps are sore to the point where i can hardly straighten my arm out and im in pain on a scale of 1 to 10 its about a 8. I went to the gym two days ago and im still in bad pain. I put warm compressors, put biofreeze to try and relax and relieve my muscles, my mom also massaged them, i even put frozen peas on them and the pain won t go away. Do you possibly know what this could be?

Hi,
I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about muscle pain.

During the act of severe excersize there is too much soreness and tenderness in muscle mass because of injury to the muscle and accumulation of lactic acid.

You must need to continue the excersize though in lighter ways to get rid of pain otherwise the pain will remain 3-4 days till the muscle gets repaired with the time. It is better to continue the excersize, have warm/hot bath. If pain is persistent and much annoying you need to take muscle relaxants for some days.

Take plenty of fluids too that will keep you hydrated and will increase the healing process.

Hope your query is answered.
Regards
