An open fracture
Both your lower legs and lower arms are made of two bones each. The radius is the larger bone of the arm, analagous to the larger tibia of the leg. The ulna is the smaller bone of the arm, while the fibula is the smaller bone of the leg.
The elbow joint is formed by the articulation of three bones: the humerus (upper arm bone), the radius (one of the two lower arm bones), and the ulna (the other lower arm bone). The humerus fits into a shallow socket on the ulna, allowing for bending and straightening of the arm. The radius bone also plays a role in this joint by rotating around the ulna, allowing for movements such as supination and pronation.
The "funny bone" or crazy bone along the inside of the elbow is on the path of the ulnar nerve. If you hit the internal condyle of the humerus (upper arm bone), a sharp stinging or tingling sensation will occur along the ulnar nerve, sometimes accompanied by a numb feeling in the lower arm.
The two bones that make up the lower arm, or forearm, are called the radius and the ulna. The radius is the bone that is located on the thumb side of the forearm. The ulna is the bone that is located on the pinky side of the forearm.

If you assess a casualty and discover that the patient has a bone protruding from his lower arm, the patient has an open fracture, also known as a compound fracture.
