    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_digitorum_longus_muscle

    The flexor digitorum longus runs along the medial posterior side of the lower leg and aids in flexions of the toes (apart from the big toe). The flexor digitorum longus muscle arises from the posterior surface of the body of the tibia, from immediately below the soleal line to within 7 or 8 cm of its lower extremity, medial to the tibial origin of the tibialis posterior muscle.

  3. Lumbricals of the foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbricals_of_the_foot

    The lumbricals arise from the tendons of the flexor digitorum longus muscle, [1] as far back as their angles of division, each springing from two tendons, except the first. The first lumbrical is unipennate, while the second, third and fourth are bipennate. The muscles end in tendons, which pass forward on the medial sides of the four lesser ...

    Tarsal tunnel syndrome (TTS) is a nerve compression syndrome or nerve entrapment syndrome causing a painful foot condition in which the tibial nerve is entrapped as it travels through the tarsal tunnel. [1][2] The tarsal tunnel is found along the inner leg behind the medial malleolus (bump on the inside of the ankle).

    51062. Anatomical terms of muscle. [ edit on Wikidata] The triceps surae consists of two muscles located at the calf – the two-headed gastrocnemius and the soleus.

    A flexor is a muscle that flexes a joint. In anatomy, flexion (from the Latin verb flectere, to bend) [1] is a joint movement that decreases the angle between the bones that converge at the joint. For example, one's elbow joint flexes when one brings their hand closer to the shoulder. Flexion is typically instigated by muscle contraction of a ...

    Palmar surface. (first lumbricalis labeled at bottom right of muscular group) The lumbricals are intrinsic muscles of the hand that flex the metacarpophalangeal joints, [1] and extend the interphalangeal joints. [1][2] The lumbrical muscles of the foot also have a similar action, though they are of less clinical concern.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_indicis_muscle

    Extensor indicis muscle is labeled in purple. In human anatomy, the extensor indicis (proprius) is a narrow, elongated skeletal muscle in the deep layer of the dorsal forearm, placed medial to, and parallel with, the extensor pollicis longus. Its tendon goes to the index finger, which it extends.

  9. Extensor retinaculum of the hand - Wikipedia

    The extensor retinaculum (dorsal carpal ligament, or posterior annular ligament) is a thickened portion of the antebrachial fascia that holds the tendons of the extensor muscles in place. [1] It is located on the back of the forearm, just proximal to the hand. [2] It is continuous with the palmar carpal ligament (which is located on the ...
