“…The ulna stress fracture does not involve the radius and it is frequently the result of a force bearing down at 90 to the ulna midshaft while the forearm is supinated and flexed at a 90 angle from the elbow to facilitate lifting heavy loads. Alternative stress fracture mechanisms include repetitive flexion and extension at the elbow, increased flexor muscle activity, and torsional stress created during rapid alternating forearm pronation and supination with flexor muscle wrist activity (Hsu et al, 2005). These mechanisms and subsequent injuries may occur during farming activities, for example, hay and manure shovelling (Evans, 1955;Kitchin, 1948;Troell et al, 1941); sports, such as rowing, weight-lifting, golf, tennis, fencing, and bowling (Hamilton, 1984;Hsu et al, 2005;Jones, 2006;Koskinen et al, 1997); and other miscellaneous stressful actions (Morris and Blickenstaff, 1967).…”
