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.

I'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 someone who hits the gym regularly and likes to take my protein shake every day after working out. Ive been wondering, if I masturbate once a week or every two weeks, will it impact my muscle growth or body size? Will it affect how my body develops?

Masturbation, when done in moderation, does not have a significant impact on muscle growth or body size. Its a natural activity that doesnt interfere with your ability to build muscle or your physical progress as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle, including proper nutrition and exercise. Focus on your workout regimen and diet for the best results.
