I have an huge bruise on the back of my right arm that extends from under my shoulder almost to the elbow. i had arm pain from golf 4 days ago?

R/o muscle rupture: Did you feel a pop? Was it after hitting a ball? Bruising on back of arm is triceps injury, on the front can be an injury to the biceps tendon. Should be checked.
