How to Tell if Your Tore Your PEC Muscle (Pec Tear)

I have tore my pec major and had 3 surgeries, if you think you tore your pec see a doctor IMMEDIATELY! Seriously, the chances of a proper recovery go down as time goes on, so if you think you tore your pec muscle go to a doctor right away.
I thought I'd make this video for entertainment purposes, a show with my chest looked like when I tore my pec. There's a video halfway through where I show what it looks like so you can skip that part if you're curious!
I talk a little bit about how it felt, and just some of the test that I was given to see if the pact was in fact, torn. I wanna reiterate that if you think that your pack is torn, go see a doctor right away because pec tears are no joke.

Literally here because I believe I tore my pectoral muscle today. While flat benching with dumbbells I definitely felt a ripping sensation side chest, under armpit. It wasn’t the most painful thing but I couldn’t work through it. Definitely hurts to flex. I’m pissed man, it seems every time I catch a rhythm something happens. It’s disheartening

I’ve torn my left pectoral twice in a year and half. Surgery both times. Now have an Achilles tendon grafted in.

I've had pec pain for a few months. Deffo feels like a strain, both sides, but left side worse. Seeing an Orthopedic surgeon soon...how long did you have to wait for surgery?

i had a partial pec tear back in sept, finally had an ultrasound in feb, and i was told last week it was up to me if i want to have surgery
i just wonder if its too late to really fix it at this point
i can fully move my arm around with just slight discomfort

[flasponge]

I too have a torn pec major
Why did you got three surgeries? Did you re-tear it or did you have to get a second/3rd surgery to correct the first one? Any advice on your PT too thanks

Sort of late to this video but without the surgery, does the visual imbalance affect bodybuilding judging by alot? I’ve got a torn pec and want to compete but not sure if it’s worth getting fixed

Was waiting in the hospital for 3 hours sitting next to a hot radiator and it’s summer time, I got sun stroke and had to leave before I could even see the doctor

I think i tore mine 7-8 ago but not fully. Ive never recovered completely. Whenever i start progressing on bench the inflammation starts getting bad. I have yet to feel than sharp pain twinge i felt 8 years ago, but im worried it could happen again and be more damaging.

Pretty sure I just tore my left pec an hour ago at the gym. Felt like Velcro ripping in my chest and armpit area. Icing now and praying it’s not too serious. Going to try these movements in the mirror now.

Question I feel like I tore something on the outer area of my pec. When I flex my left pec I feel sharp radiating pain by my shoulder armpit area

[asmirk]

Yo, so I did my PR on flat bench like 5 days ago, didn’t feel anything, no pops or anything like that, but Im feelin now lil bit of pain, no bruise, and also can see the hole between my chest and armpit, Im now confused, did I tore my pec or what? Because its in the same spot where your scar is

[stephensaikali]

Once you actually tore the pec, did you still feel any pain afterwards besides the moment it happened?

[oweneoin]

You were benching a nice weight. Have you managed to build the bench weight back a bit or are you taking a step back from lifting?

[ujan]

how long did you wait to get surgery? i think i tore mine two days ago. i went to dr and was told i needed an mri to confirm how bad. they don’t have any mri appointments for 3weeks and then ill need to goto a specialist and then schedule an appointment. at this rate it will probably be 4-5 weeks before i can even get it fully diagnosed before a surgery can get scheduled. it’s really frustrating.

Besides the wound scars, is there any deformity in your chest following your recovery?

[TheMasonator]

Will this mimc a rotator cuff tear? It really hurts to abduct my arm. I have pain and a torn feeling in the axillary fold. Shoulder internally rotates when I try to lift my arm to the side. Pain is almost all under the arm.

[bornforgameplay]

I think I have a minor tear too RN its ok I can still do pushups but I think my right side is taking the load still got 25 to go idk if I tear it completely I will be back

[Yoids]

wow, I just subscribed for the BG content, so surprised to see this. Hope it's all better now! Definitely gaming is safer :P

If you perform the push down method you described and it does somewhat ball the muscle up is that a full tear or a partial and is that muscle and tendon torn ?

[lacasaderubick]

Hey quick question jason. Can you tore your pec and experince no pain and continue lifting with very mild discomfort?
