Musculus brachialis · Hluboký sval pažní
Muscles
Looks like
A broad flat muscle lying beneath the biceps, from the lower half of the humerus to the ulna.
What it does
The main bender of the elbow, whatever way the palm faces.
Keeping it well
Bruised or strained with heavy lifting. A hard, painful lump in it after an elbow injury may be bone forming in the muscle and needs review.
