Explanation

"Popeye Deformity" refers to a condition where there is a noticeable bulge in the biceps muscle, often caused by a tear in the biceps tendon. This injury results in the muscle bunching up, resembling the cartoon character Popeye’s exaggerated biceps, hence the name. It typically occurs in the upper arm and is associated with a sudden, sharp pain when the tendon tears.
