The tendons that attach this muscle to your shoulder and forearm can tear, requiring surgery. Depending on your level of activity, rehab after biceps surgery may last 4 to 6 months. Biceps tendon injuries at the elbow typically occur when bending the elbow against very high resistance.
Post-Operative Period up to 6 weeks. Immediately after the operation, you will be encouraged to keep the shoulder as still as possible. Pain will vary from person to person and depend on the extent of the repair to the shoulder. The frequent application of cold packs to the area will help to reduce the swelling and the pain. The first phase of recovery can potentially last up to 6 weeks after the surgery. You will be instructed to keep the shoulder as immobile as possible and to keep your arm in a sling. The use of the sling keeps the weight of your arm off of the tendon which assists in the healing process.
