What is the skin on the elbow called?

Dry skin that needs lotion. Did you read the other answers? Everyone is asking this question. Olecranal, is not referring to the skin, but to the protrusion of the bone called the ulna. In human anatomy class, we were told that the elbow skin is continuous and contiguous with the rest of the skin on your body, which is part of the integument, or epidermis. Simple squamous epithelial tissue is the outer most layer of the epidermis. The skin on the bottom of your feet and palm of your hands is considered "thick skin". The elbow may look like thick skin because of how dry it can get when you don't pay attention to your looks and hydration, but really it is not "thick skin".
