AB The  elbow  is  a  modified  hinge  joint  that  serves  to  connect  the  forearm  to  the  upper  arm  through  the  articulation  of  three  bones:  the  ulna,  radius,  and  humerus.  The  elbow  is  most  stable  at  the  end  ranges  of  extension  and  flexion.  Many  of  the  injuries  that  occur  at  the  elbow  involve  repetitive  stresses,  such  as  swinging  a  golf  club  or  tennis  racquet  and  overhead  throwing  activities.
