A patient presents with a swollen, painful deformity to the lateral bone of the left forearm. You should recognize that he has injured his:

The correct answer is A. clavicle.

The clavicle, or collarbone, is located at the lateral aspect of the body, connecting the arm to the body's trunk. In this case, a swollen, painful deformity to the lateral bone of the left forearm indicates an injury to the clavicle. This could be due to a direct blow or trauma to the region.

The other options, humerus, radius, and ulna, are bones located in the arm, but they are not located in the lateral aspect of the forearm as described in the question stem.
