When I was in basic the achilles' tendons in both feet flared up at the same time. Felt like my boot heels were caved in & poking my heels with each step. Could hardly walk. Went on sick call & the doc put these adhesive ace bandage things on'em. Fixed'em right up. Like immediately.
This arm thing doesn't hurt unless I reach out with weight like throwing a shovel full of dirt. Gotta go easy with that. The bicep muscle being detached at the elbow will not heal. The only thing you can do as I understand it is to have surgery to reattach it which involves an incision above the bend in the elbow & go up in there with a hemostat, find the end of it & pull it down then fasten it to the bone. My left side is trash already so not sure what I want to do. See what the doc says a week from tuesday.

Might be best if you didn't even try for a while. Whatever I did to my shoulder several months ago, I could move it a little, could type and slice veggies at the sink, but not much more than that for a while. Roads were still a winter mess, so wasn't tempted to see if I could ride. I did sit on one, and it wasn't comfortable at all reaching for the throttle, so I'm sure I couldn't have. Two winters in a row I was kinda crippled up, hope that ain't a trend.
