pain suggests biceps tendon or rotator cuff pathology
yergason test
shoulder

forearm neutral
passively flex elbow and supinate simultaneously
pain/snapping suggests bicipital tendonitis, tear/laxity of transverse humeral ligament (secures long head of biceps tendon into bicipital groove - long biceps snaps over lesser tuberosity)
long vs short head biceps tendon relative position
long head from supraglenoid tuberosity laterally thru bicipital groove between humeral tuberosities like pulley
