  2. Pronation of the foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pronation_of_the_foot

    The normal biomechanics of the foot absorb and direct the occurring throughout the gait whereas the foot is flexible (pronation) and rigid (supination) during different phases of the gait cycle. As the foot is loaded, eversion of the subtalar joint, dorsiflexion of the ankle, and abduction of the forefoot occur.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_terms_of_motion

    Inversion and eversion are movements that tilt the sole of the foot away from (eversion) or towards (inversion) the midline of the body. [35] Eversion is the movement of the sole of the foot away from the median plane. [36] Inversion is the movement of the sole towards the median plane. For example, inversion describes the motion when an ankle ...

    So, during subtalar inversion, the calcaneus also rotates clockwise and translates forward along the axis of the screw. Average subtalar motion is 20-30 degrees inversion and 5-10 degrees eversion. Functional motion during the gait cycle is 10-15 degrees (the heel strikes the ground in slight inversion followed by quick eversion).

  5. Sinus tarsi syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinus_tarsi_syndrome

    Sinus tarsi syndrome can have a variety of causes. The most common is an inversion (rolling out) ankle sprain, which makes up 70-80% of cases, followed by pronation of the foot, which is responsible for about 20-30% of cases. [3] More rarely, excessive physical activity and other forms of foot trauma/chronic ankle injury are thought to be the ...

  6. Tibialis anterior muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibialis_anterior_muscle

    It also functions to 'lock' the ankle, as in toe-kicking a ball, when held in an isometric contraction. [5] [better source needed] The movements of tibialis anterior are dorsiflexion and inversion of the ankle. However, actions of tibialis anterior are dependent on whether the foot is weight bearing or not (closed or open kinetic chain). When ...

  7. Ankle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankle

    The ankle, the talocrural region [1] or the jumping bone (informal) is the area where the foot and the leg meet. [2] The ankle includes three joints: the ankle joint proper or talocrural joint, the subtalar joint, and the inferior tibiofibular joint. [3] [4] [5] The movements produced at this joint are dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of the ...

  8. Tibialis posterior muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibialis_posterior_muscle

    The tibialis posterior muscle is a key muscle for stabilization of the lower leg. It also contracts to produce inversion of the foot, and assists in the plantarflexion of the foot at the ankle. [3] The tibialis posterior has a major role in supporting the medial arch of the foot.

  9. Fibularis brevis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_brevis

    The fibularis brevis (bottom-most label) is a muscle of the lower leg and aids in plantar flexion and eversion of the foot. The fibularis brevis arises from the lower two-thirds of the lateral, or outward, surface of the fibula (inward in relation to the fibularis longus) and from the connective tissue between it and the muscles on the front and back of the leg.
