Anterior shoulder pain is common in overhead athletes and baseball players. This pain often comes from the biceps, but may not be the root of the issue.
In this episode, I talk with Dr. Brandon Erickson about the role of the biceps, it’s contribution to shoulder pain, SLAP tears, and biceps tendodesis surgery.
