Hand

Hand

The hand consists of 27 bones and forms a complex functional unit that is of central importance for fine motor activities in everyday life.


 

The hand consists of numerous bones, joints, tendons, and muscles that are precisely coordinated with each other. This complex structure provides both stability and a high degree of mobility. In particular, the many small joints of the fingers allow precise movements.

Through the interaction of joints, tendons, and muscles, the hand can perform a wide range of movements. It enables both fine motor activities such as writing and grasping as well as powerful movements like lifting and pushing.
