Basic Elbow Anatomy. Before you get to the causes of your inflamed elbow, I want to give you a very brief anatomy lesson of the elbow. Your elbow is what is referred to as a hinge joint. At the joint is the connection of your upper arm bone with your forearm bone. To be exact, 3 bones( the radius, ulna and humerus) come together at the joint to form your elbow. The bones in your body are secured and supported together by muscles and tendons. It goes muscle >> tendon >> bone.
