Answers:
It depends what kind of tear you have!. If it is a 1st degree tear it will heal by itself within 6-8 weeks providing you are not using your biceps!. Applying ice will help reducing the swelling and pain, however, do not apply ice directly to the skin (i!.e!. put a cloth between the skin and ice), and only ice it for 20min daily!. If you have a more serious tear (only a physiotherapist will tell you what kind of tear you have), you may need surgery!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
