bicepssenan

Bicepssenan, often referred to as the biceps tendon, is a crucial anatomical structure located in the upper arm. It connects the biceps brachii muscle to the bones of the shoulder and elbow. There are two primary biceps tendons: the long head and the short head. The long head of the biceps tendon originates from the supraglenoid tubercle of the scapula, passing through the shoulder joint itself. The short head originates from the coracoid process of the scapula. Both tendons then converge and insert onto the radial tuberosity of the radius bone in the forearm. The primary functions of the biceps brachii, facilitated by these tendons, include flexing the elbow (bending the arm) and supinating the forearm (turning the palm upwards). Tears or inflammation of the biceps tendons, such as tendinitis or tendon rupture, can cause significant pain and loss of function in the arm. These injuries can occur due to overuse, trauma, or degenerative changes. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination and imaging studies like ultrasound or MRI. Treatment options range from conservative measures like rest and physical therapy to surgical repair, depending on the severity of the injury.
