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 a bodybuilder and I've been taking 1 Liv 52 DS daily to detox my liver from orals. I'm just wondering if it's okay to take Liv 52 DS every day for a whole year. If it's not recommended, how long should I take a break before starting again?
Taking Liv 52 DS for liver detoxification is generally safe for long-term use. However, it is recommended to take breaks to allow your body to function without the supplement. You can take Liv 52 DS for 2-3 months continuously, then take a break for 1 month before resuming. This cycle can be repeated as needed for liver support.

I'm having some trouble with my shoulder when I throw a cricket ball. It actually hurts a lot, and for about five minutes, it feels like my hand isnt even connected to my body. I'm not sure whats going on. Could you give me some advice on what I should do about this?
The shoulder pain and temporary numbness or disconnection sensation in your hand after throwing a cricket ball may indicate a shoulder injury, such as a rotator cuff strain or shoulder impingement, or possible nerve compression; consider consulting a sports medicine specialist or physiotherapist for a proper evaluation, and in the meantime, apply the RICE principle: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation to alleviate symptom

I'm dealing with some really bad pain on my left side, kind of where the lower rib muscles are, and I think its from doing this really intense march past practice. Its swollen and the pain is getting pretty unbearable right now. Can you help me figure out whats going on and what I can do to ease this pain?
It sounds like you may have strained the muscles in your lower rib area from intense physical activity, like march past practice. I recommend resting, applying ice to reduce inflammation, and taking over-the-counter pain relief if needed. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to see a healthcare provider for a proper assessment and treatment.
