Torn bicep and training?

[16cdevine]

im wondering if anyone knows a time frame on how long I'll be out or if it's safe to just do some light work until it's better. I'm currently in between insurance thanks to Obamacare so I haven't been able to get to the doctor to confirm its torn however it's looks as if my bicep is not connected at the bottom and I cannot straighten my arm, the only way I can explain it is that it looks as if I have a softball stuck under my skin 2/3 the way up my arm instead of it being full length elbow to shoulder look as usual.

Do not train it at all, and also know that if it requires reattachment (which it sounds like it does) I believe the window for surgery is 3 weeks post injury max.

Also, you're talking a 6 month recovery on a torn bicep, nothing to play around with

I've known two guys that did same thing in last yr or so. Don't wait. They both were in for surgery just as soon as the doc could get them in. One was next day, other was two days. Like was said....limited window to getting it fixed right.
