Blood in urine (haematuria) Introduction. Finding blood in your urine can be very frightening and must be investigated by a doctor, but it's not usually a sign of anything life-threatening. If you notice bright red blood in your urine, or if your urine has turned red or brown because it has blood in it, see your GP.
An inside look at the structure of the elbow. #. Advertisement. Advertisement. The elbow is where the two bones of the forearm â the radius on the thumb side of the arm and the ulna on the pinky finger side â meet the bone of the upper arm -- the humerus. The lower end of the humerus flares out into two rounded protrusions called epicondyles, where muscles attach.
The humerus is the both the largest bone in the arm and the only bone in the upper arm. Many powerful muscles that manipulate the upper arm at the shoulder and the forearm at the elbow are anchored to the humerus. Movement of the humerus is essential to all of the varied activities of the arm, such as throwing, lifting, and writing. At its proximal end, the humerus forms a smooth, spherical structure known as the head of the humerus.
