Uneven Biceps

Hi, Ive got a strength and rep/set question involving the biceps. How do I even up my biceps. My right bicep(dominate arm) is slightly bigger then my left. But from doing dumb bell curls and EZ bar curls I found that my arms are pretty much equal in strength just my one is bigger then the other.I know your dominate arm is suppose to be stronger but it just that much stronger that it annoys me in the gym that I can actually see/feel the difference in size.
Should I just do an extra set of one arm dumbell curls or other exercises?

Another Question: Usually the day after I workout my right arm, the one slightly larger, always has this tensioned up feeling in the bicep just above the elbow when the muscle is getting to the highest point. Do you know any reason for this?
Only 2 more questions: This for kinda nutritional reason but how much carbs are you suppose to eat in a day. Stats are: 16 year old male, 140 pounds.

Last question that is kind of random and just want to know: If I'm 140 pounds, 16 year old with about 7% bodyfat. Is dead lifting 175 pounds good? I do that for 3 sets of 10 with about 1 minute rest.

Thanks in advance

My right arm bicep is slightly more 'pointy' than my left one and my right arm is very slightly stronger on some things. I dont see how it can be a big problem tho, i doubt they look that bad and i doubt your right arm is so much stronger that it affects you. But if you do want your left to be as big/strong it makes sense to do a little bit more extra on that arm.

Well how tall are you? and is your goal to get big? and are you trying to bulk? Knowing this, you will then be able to roughly say how much carbs you need. You get a lot of your energy from carbs and they are useful for muscle repair and recovery etc so definately have plenty! Someone else im sure will be able to tell you a more accurate quantity

And for the deadlifting i wouldnt really know as i havnt started doing them YET, which is bad i know.

I'm about 5 foot 7. My arms aren't that much different but just enough that it can get annoying. Right now I'm just doing one arm curls. About 2 sets of 10.

I am trying to bulk right now and my trainer said to eat a lot of carbs I just forgot how to ask how much in a day.
