About Biceps Tendinitis
Biceps tendinitis is front-of-shoulder tendon pain often triggered by overhead lifting, throwing, or pulling. Physical therapy reduces irritation and rebuilds rotator cuff, scapular, and biceps strength for pain-free motion.
Expected Recovery Window
Reactive tendinopathy: 4–8 weeks. Persistent tendinopathy: 8–16 weeks. Post-surgical (tenodesis/tenotomy): 8–12+ weeks.
Common Symptoms
Pain at the front of the shoulder; pain with lifting, reaching overhead, or pulling; tenderness in the bicipital groove; pain with throwing or push-ups; clicking in some cases; pain when sleeping on the affected side.
Common Causes
Repetitive overhead lifting or throwing; shoulder impingement mechanics increasing tendon load; long-head biceps overload during pulling and pressing; poor scapular control; sudden increase in upper body training volume; degenerative tendon changes with age.
How We Treat Biceps Tendinitis
We reduce irritation with load modification and targeted isometrics, then rebuild capacity with progressive rotator cuff, scapular, and biceps loading. We also address mobility and mechanics that drive anterior shoulder overload so symptoms do not keep returning.
