The humerus (; : humeri) is a long bone in the arm that runs from the shoulder to the elbow. It connects the scapula and the two bones of the lower arm, the radius and ulna, and consists of three sections. The humeral upper extremity consists of a rounded head, a narrow neck, and two short processes (tubercles, sometimes called tuberosities). The shaft is cylindrical in its upper portion, and more prismatic below. The lower extremity consists of 2 epicondyles, 2 processes (trochlea and capitulum), and 3 fossae (radial fossa, coronoid fossa, and olecranon fossa). As well as its true anatomical
The humerus is the long bone in your upper arm that extends from your shoulder to your elbow, connecting the shoulder blade to the two bones of your forearm. It matters because it serves as a crucial structural link in your arm, enabling the connection between your shoulder and forearm bones while supporting the movement and function of your entire arm.
