Biceps Tendonitis

The Biceps is the muscle on the front of your arm - its the one that bulges when you bend your elbow.

It is attached via tendons to the shoulder blade (scapula) and your radius (one of the two bones in your forearm)

Near its attachment to the scapula, the biceps tendon runs through the shoulder joint and along the top of your humerus (arm bone). As you get older, it can degenerate (wear and tear) and can become inflammed. An inflammed tendon is called tendonitis.
