Triceps Tendon Tear
This is a serious, painful injury. The triceps tendon connects the triceps muscle of the upper arm to the back of the elbow. The triceps tendon allows you to straighten your arm from the bent position. This injury is usually due to trauma or muscle overload. A tear or strain can consist of a very small partial tear all the way to a full thickness complete tear. A complete tear is a rupture. A tear can occur suddenly or over time.
