Brachialis Muscle Strain. The brachialis muscle is the main flexor of your elbow joint. Located between the biceps muscle and the elbow the brachialis muscle is important for bending the elbow joint isometrically.
The strain increased significantly in case of a ruptured ulnar and lateral collateral ligament. A strain to the brachialis tendon can also cause a patient to present with lacking elbow extension due. A strain of the brachialis muscle was observed under varus forces with a pronated forearm.
It is only involved in flexion at the elbow and therefore the strongest flexor at the elbow compared with the biceps brachii which is also involved in supination because of its insertion on the radius.
