A térdhajlat "ham" szóval fordítandó, de az csak a térdhaljatot jelenti...

disagree  JANOS SAMU: A bend nem két testrész csatlakozását jelenti, hanem görbületet.

hollow of the knee


Explanation:
This is the "térdhajlat"; the problem is that one would probably not speak of "hollows" in the plural. But given that the author felt the need to explain the expression with a specific example, I think it's not so clear in the original either.

"The hollows of the knees and elbows" - does that cover everything?

Is the armpit included?

I mean above that you can say "hollows of the knees" but not "hollows of the body," of course.

disagree  JANOS SAMU: While it is not so clear, zou still cannot restrict it to the knee, because we have hajlat in neck, sacral area etc.

joint area


Explanation:
Míg a magyarban hajlatokról van szó, a szövegkörnyezet izületi hajlatokra utal. Az izületi hajlatok megtalálhatók két csont találkozásánál. A hajlatok ugyanitt vannak, ezért nevezzük őket joint areának. A betegségük is ugyanaz mind a hajlatoknál:

disagree  Hungary GMK: A szövegkörnyezetből kiderül, hogy irritációnak kitett testfelületek, ez pedig inkább a bőr, mint az izület. Főleg, hogy a fül tövénél is van hajlat, joint viszont nincs.
6 mins
  -> A joint area magában foglalja a hajlati testfelületet. A hajlat általános kifejezés, ezért a válasznak is általánosnak kell lennie.
neutral  Jim Tucker (X): Ezzel elkerülöd a probléma lényegét (nem hangsúlyozva az izület belsejét); méghozzá lehet, hogy többröl van szó, mint csak izületröl (pl. börhajlat esetleg).

elbow and knee bends/inner elbow or behind the knee


Explanation:
Számos bőrgyőgyászati oldalon is csak így, felsoroásként szerepel.

"...behind the knee or in the bend of an elbow .......eczema is commonly located on the inner elbow or behind the knee"
http://www.disabled-world.com/artman/publish/article_1633.sh...

"The dermatitis varies as localized scaly lesions to more generalized involvement involving the elbow and knee bends, neck, forehead, behind the ears, wrists and hands."

Ha kifejezetten a bőrre vonatkozik, akkor viszont:

SKIN FOLD(S)

"Intertrigo is an inflammatory condition of skin folds...
Intertrigo commonly affects the axilla, perineum, inframammary creases, and abdominal folds..."
hónalj;ágyék, gát; emlő alatti stb területekre vonatkozik.

agree  Jim Tucker (X): That second link you cite might be the best solution; depends on specific ailment discussed in asker's text.

disagree  JANOS SAMU: András, szerintem ez nem jó az adott szövegkörnyezetre, mert a flexure inkább görbület. Láad left/right colic flexure, splenic flexure, hepatic flexure, duodenojejunal flexure etc.
