I'm having this pinching pain deep in my left bicep, kind of near the middle and close to the bone. It kicks in whenever I flex my bicep, and I got this from the gym. I've rested but it hasn't eased up. Why hasn't the pain reduced even after taking it easy?

The most likely causes are tendinitis, a muscle strain, or nerve-related issues. However, if the pain persists or worsens, its essential to consult a healthcare provider who can properly assess your injury and guide you through a treatment plan. In the meantime, rest, ice, gentle stretching, and avoiding activities that strain the bicep are crucial steps. A tailored rehab plan or physical therapy might be helpful to fully recover from the injury.

View allI'm really into my morning walks, and I've been gradually increasing my distance to about 22.5 kms. But lately, I've noticed I'm super exhausted by the time I get home, and sometimes I'm just drowsy all day. I've even caught myself dozing off during travel. This has been going on for about a month. Any idea why this might be happening or how I could fix it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing fatigue and drowsiness due to physical exertion. You may benefit from taking a supplement like Vitamin B12 to help boost your energy levels. I recommend taking a Vitamin B12 supplement with a dosage of 1000 mcg daily. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated before, during, and after your walk. If the symptoms persist, it would be a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm aware that drinking energy drinks, especially before a workout, can be risky. But I ended up having one can anyway because I can be pretty stubborn. Now I'm wondering, is it safe if I hit the gym in about 2 hours? Should I wait longer? Would love to know what you think.
yes you can have it . but generally avoid it , it would be better

I'm a 33-year-old male, and I'm trying to figure out if it's okay for me to start taking workout supplements to help get in better shape. My blood pressure is usually around 11773, and my heart rate sits around 75. I want to lose some weight and hit the gym more seriously. Do you think supplements would be a good idea for me?
You can consider taking a pre-workout supplement to enhance your workout performance. One option is Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Pre-Workout, which can be taken 20-30 minutes before exercise. The recommended dosage is 1 scoop mixed with water. This supplement can help increase energy, focus, and endurance during your workout. Remember to stay hydrated and follow the recommended dosage instructions.
