Best Answer

This means that when your muscles stretch certain ways that the nerves are being pressed against and can't move causing severe pain down the lining of the muscles being used. Flexion is used when the toes are pointed causing the muscles in the back of the leg to pull, and extension is when you extend a muscle past its normal resting point. These stretches cause many painful issues for people diagnosed with disorders such as sciatica.

What is the definition of lateral flexion?

Lateral flexion usually refers to the spine, or vertebral column. You can laterally flex your head, neck, or your torso (back). =answer= Lateral direction is away from the midline of the body (an imaginary line from the middle of your node to your belly button). Flexion is the opposite to extension where the angle between anterior surfaces is decreased (as you being then closer together by 'bending') - except for the knee where the opposite is true. Lateral flexion is therefore a combination of there two movements.
