A member asked:
Can a partial tear of the distal bicep tendon cause pain in my forearm, wrist and make my fingers cramp. my injury happened 3 weeks ago.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Near the distal biceps is the median nerve. Injury to that area can potentially injure that nerve or swelling puts pressure on that nerve. A test called emg/ncv can identify how well that nerve is functioning and help determine the cause. Stop at your local physical medicine and rehab or neurologist doctors office for more details.
