the inner surface of the hand between the wrist and fingers
The palm is the broad, fleshy part of the hand, located between the fingers and the wrist. It is characterized by a unique pattern of lines and creases, known as palmistry or palm lines. The palm plays a fundamental role in hand movements and functions, such as gripping, grasping, and manipulating objects. It houses various muscles, tendons, and ligaments that enable fine motor skills and intricate hand movements. The palm is also a sensitive area that contains many nerve endings, contributing to tactile sensation and touch perception. Understanding the anatomy and function of the palm is important for hand coordination, dexterity, and overall hand functionality.
