question: Hi doctor, I am 31 years old, weight 69 kg and height 5 feet 7 inches. I recently started a gym, and this is the first time that I have ever done gym. My instructor made me do bicep curls and hammer. Post that, I did not feel any pain. But after approximately 24 hours, I felt pain in my biceps. My biceps are so strained that I find it hard to straighten my hands. Pain is in the biceps only. But, I am finding it difficult to do simple activities like wearing a shirt or washing my face. Whenever I try to bend or stretch my hands, I feel a lot of pressure on my biceps. I have been feeling this way for 24 hours post workout till now. I did a workout last week. Kindly suggest a remedy. Do I need to see a doctor or is it one of the side effects of workout?
