Abstract

The long head of the biceps has garnered increased attention and interest due to the high prevalence of pain that can be a primary condition or occur secondary to shoulder dysfunction. The successful treatment of biceps tendinopathy is dependent on an accurate diagnosis and recognizing all causative factors. The treatment program will be individualized with a rehabilitation program designed to restore strength and flexibility and restore normal tendon mechanics.<br /> (Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc.
