Inner Elbow

Once during our elementary lesson where we are learning body parts, one of my classmate ask Sensei on the proper term of inner elbow. Sensei could not give a proper term for this (>.<)|||

Interesting enough, I search Yahoo answers and post the question there.

And soon enough someone managed to fill me up with an answer  :

While, 肘(ひじ) hiji means elbow. There was an old term for inner elbow call 肘窩(ちゅか) chuka. Modern way of say inner elbow will be 肘の内側(ひじのうちがわ) hiji no uchigawa.

Interesting, isn't it?
