Q

List and describe the 3 ligaments of elbow joint

A

Collateral ligaments:

Q

Describe the maneuver for treating “nursemaid’s elbow”

A

1) The doctor will hold the child’s wrist or forearm and turn the hand so that it faces palm up.
2) While putting pressure near the top of the radius bone with his or her thumb, the doctor will slowly bend the elbow.
