Missing muscle strands in one bicep

Anyone experience this or know what it is? I've had some pain in my bicep for around a year, but able to work through it easily. Now recently I've noticed when I flex and move my left arm in certain lighting, there's a few little strands missing, almost looks like a shadowy dark line running vertically thru my entire bicep.
For some reason I trust you guys more than family dr's who don't lift, all they're gonna do is tell me not to lift for a month, then come back if it still hurts...

Makes sense, but I feel like it happened over time. I've torn the same bicep muscle before, but noticed a huge little hole which is still there. When I got an MRI for that it didn't help at all, it was inconclusive because they claimed I might've moved too much
