I have reasonably good health at my advanced age though I do feel some problems yet I do have daily walks for about 30 mins a day. I have been having both shoulders pain for the last about 2 years which though continued yet remained fairly manageable with Fastum Gel and occasional fomentation. 3 months back, my rt shoulder created a crackling sound resulting increase in pain which got reduced with passage of time. Recently I got US done done which revealed bicep Tendon rupture in the Rt shoulder which comes down close to elbow. I went to the Surgeon and also a competent concerned Rehabilitation Specialist. Surgeon and I agreed not for any surgery etc. The other Specialist felt that it is a partial rupture of a Tendon. that is why my arm is still working almost OK. He advised not to lift any thing even small with rt arm besides using Fastum Gel/ pain killer when needed.
Can I have the views of others who had some what similar experience and what precautions/ medications etc were/are being used by them and their results? Possibly besides operation (totally out for me) there cannot be any hope for betterment of ruptured Tendon.
