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.

Is it okay to take this supplement if I'm hitting the gym regularly? I've read it might lead to a bleeding disorder. How likely is it that it could cause internal bleeding issues? I'm really concerned about the risks involved.

It is important to be cautious when taking medications that can cause bleeding disorders while engaging in physical activities like going to the gym. The chances of experiencing internal bleeding problems can vary depending on the individual's health condition, dosage of the medication, and other factors. It is recommended to avoid high-impact activities and to monitor for any signs of bleeding such as easy bruising, nosebleeds, or blood in stool or urine. If you are experiencing any unusual symptoms or have concerns about the medication's side effects, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

I've been experiencing this mild pain on my lower left rib for about a week now, and it's pretty noticeable, especially when I touch the area. The pain seems localized to the rib bone itself, and doesnt feel like its coming from inside my stomach. I think it began after playing cricket recently. Could you give me some guidance on what might be causing this and what I should do about it?
