The elbow is the joint where three long bones meet in the middle portion of the arm. The bone of the upper arm (humerus) meets the inner bone of the forearm (ulna) and the outer bone of the forearm (radius) to form a hinge joint. The radius and ulna also meet in the elbow to a...
Elbow Joint: The elbow joint is a complex articulation in the human anatomy that connects the humerus (upper arm bone) with the radius and ulna (two bones of the forearm). Functioning as a hinge joint, it enables the relative motion of the forearm in relation to the upper arm. ...
The elbow joint is a complex structure consisting of bones, tendons, and forearm muscles. It is essential for various daily activities and movements. This section will provide a brief understanding of the elbow and the importance of maintaining its health. ...
