Arthritic elbow,computer artwork. The pain of the arthritic joint,and the inflamed area,is shown in red. Bones are blue. The elbow joint is where the humerus (the upper arm bone,top) joins with the two lower arm bones (bottom: ulna at right and radius at left). Arthritis is a joint disease in which the joints become inflamed and painful. This is either because the body's immune system attacks them (rheumatoid arthritis) or through wear and tear (osteoarthritis). In severe cases,surgery can be carried out to replace the elbow joint | |
