What are Elbow Injuries?

The bend of the arm at the joint that connects the upper arm and the forearm. It is a common site of inflammation and injuries, such as those incurred during participation in various sports.

The hinged articulation of the humerus, the ulna, and the radius. It is covered by a protective capsule associated with three ligaments and an extensive synovial membrane. The elbow joint allows flexion and extension of the forearm and accommodates the radioulnar articulation. Also called articulatio cubiti.
