Elbow / Hand

Three bones form the elbow joint: the upper arm bone and two lower arm bones. The possible movements are flexion/extension, and rotation.

On one hand, the anatomy of the hand ensures with its complex, and slender structure precise and flexible movements, but on the other hand, it leads to high sensitivity und vulnerability.
