The elbow is the central joint of the arm and divides it up into two convenient halves, looking initially merely like a backwards and forwards hinge. On closer examination the elbow shows itself to be a remarkably clever and multi-talented joint. The humerus or upper arm bone connects with the two lower arm bones, the radius and the ulna. The elbow joint itself is formed from the lower end of the humerus and the upper end of the ulna which makes up the bony point of the elbow which can be easily felt. The upper end of the ulna has a ladle like shape which carries in its bowl the end of the humerus.
