Interestingly, I found this quote, which pleases me, on the web page I put down below--- <br />"For many people, pain from a long head of biceps tendon tear resolves over time. Mild arm weakness or arm deformity may not bother some patients, such as older and less active people."<br />From--- http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/topic.cfm?topic=A00031<br /><br />Is it wrong to be hoping that the best player in Packer history suffers from "mild arm weakness or arm deformity"? It feels so right...Mr.Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09640299265197754525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35883365.post-18124773191087155122009-06-10T21:08:49.308-05:002009-06-10T21:08:49.308-05:00http://www.itendonitis.com/images/bicepanatomy.jpg...http://www.itendonitis.com/images/bicepanatomy.jpgPapa Salhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15318911019097406306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35883365.post-27120290187238349402009-06-10T21:06:23.876-05:002009-06-10T21:06:23.876-05:00He will lose some strength in his bicep, but not t...He will lose some strength in his bicep, but not too much. I would guess he should still be able to tuck the ball as that is more of the forearm flexion. If his other upper tendon were to rupture it would probably roll up, but not to the extreme as when the lower attachment ruptures. (This happened to Pudge Rodriguez a number of years ago.)Papa Salhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15318911019097406306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35883365.post-59219305307683600692009-06-10T08:24:52.817-05:002009-06-10T08:24:52.817-05:00So, long term, his arm is slightly less firmly att...So, long term, his arm is slightly less firmly attached to his shoulder, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem, because he has another tendon that attaches the muscle to the shoulder (in addition to all the shoulder muscles that attach to the arm). Any thoughts on ball security? Will his biceps be any weaker overall? <br /><br />Also, if the other upper tendon was also completely torn, how would that affect him? Would his biceps muscle roll up like a snapped rubber band? <br /><br />Anyhow, thanks Papa Sal, M.D.Mr.Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09640299265197754525noreply@blogger.com
