The deltoid tuberosity.
The deltoid tuberosity is the rough elevation on the lateral surface of the shaft of the humerus. It's the site of deltoid attachment.

Though usually described as a single insertion, the deltoid insertion is divided into two or three areas. Insertion is on the deltoid tuberosity on the middle of the lateral aspect of the shaft of the humerus

An epicondyle is a bony lump located on the outside of the humerus bone near the elbow joint. It serves as a point of attachment for muscles and ligaments that help stabilize and move the elbow joint. The two main epicondyles are the medial epicondyle on the inner side and the lateral epicondyle on the outer side of the humerus.
Intramuscular (IM) injections are typically given in one of three muscles. These muscles are the vastus lateralis, or thigh muscle, the ventrogluteal, or hip muscle, and the deltoid, or upper arm muscle.
The posterior surface of the humerus serves as an attachment site for various muscles and ligaments, contributing to the shoulder and arm's movement and stability. It features the radial groove, which houses the radial nerve and the deep brachial artery, allowing for the passage of neurovascular structures. Additionally, the posterior surface plays a role in the overall anatomy of the humerus, aiding in the alignment and articulation with the forearm bones at the elbow joint.
