This is my MRI report from the radiologist I got this week. Anyone else ever have this Injury? Happened to me back in March doing DB incline presses. Arm just gave out, and it sounded like velcro. Took this damn long to get me In for an MRI, but here we are. Just curious if anyone else has had this happen & if they had to get surgery? I am scheduled to see the orthopedic doctor for follow up.
Since this I’ve still been doing a lot of front raises, lateral raises and chest flys since I can’t press. Legs train as normal, but back is kinda tricky because after a certain load it puts a strain on my arm pulling so I just do what I can.
Using this time to clean up & drop some BF. Brought my gear down to 250 test / 200 mg primo WK & 5IU GH ED. Down about 16 lbs (247 now ) since mid March feeling a lot healthier TBH.
Findings:
No abnormal marrow edema is appreciated.
There is no evidence of fracture, healing fracture, or AVN.
There is a partial-thickness tear of the posterior component of the distal triceps tendon. This represents a partial-thickness tear of the combined tendon involving the lateral long heads. The more anterior medial head is uninvolved.Surrounding soft tissue edema is appreciated. Follow-up with orthopedics is advised.
The biceps is intact. The brachialis tendon is intact. The common flexor tendon is intact.
Mixed signal in the common extensor tendon is appreciated. This represents severe tendinopathy with some intrasubstance tearing. The collateral ligaments appear intact..
Impression:
* Partial tear of the posterior compartment of the distal triceps tendon is confirmed.
Surrounding edema is noted.
* Common extensor tendinopathy with intrasubstance tearing. Follow-up with orthopedics is advised
