Re: Bone

The bone from the shoulder to the elbow is the humerus . Then the 2 bones in the lower forearm is the ulna and radius.

Re: Bone

The part you feel as your elbow is your olecranon process which is part of your ulnar. The olecranon process fits into the Olecranon fossa which is part of your humerous.

Thanks a lot for the info but may i say this, If you have ever read anything on shoulder dydtocia deleveries the doctors says that it can't cause this bone to break at all anyway shape or form but if you read online it tells you that it can cause a break but the doctors here where i live they will call you a lier and also the judge. Anyway thank you very much for your reply and i truely hope you had a Very Merry Christmas today but on this question i ask, it caused us not to have Christmas not thanksgiven this year but maybe next year i truely hope.

Re: Bone

I am so sorry for your problems. I think the best bet for your answers lie with your child's doctors and/or lawyers. We can't provide medical or legal advice. Please take care.
