Just took an injury while doing dips between benches with 90 pounds on my lap. basically found myself on the floor about half way through and in pain...took about 10 minutes to get up. I have almost no tricep strength on the right side, but I can extend my arm straight, no problem. It's swollen near the elbow and I"m icing and popping Motrin for now. Going to the sports doc on Monday. Tried to do one arm tricep extension with just a 5 pound dumbbell...and I got nothing....
If I put my arm straight out in front of me, palm facing up...I can extend all the way...as I bring my arm towards my face, I start to feel tightness in the tri around 90 degrees...and pain shortly after..cannot even get close to my face. Anyone else have experience with this. Is this a complete tear? Strain? Surgery?
