The medial border of the anatomical snuff box is the extensor pollicis longus tendon. The lateral border is made of tendons from two muscles: the extensor pollicis brevis and the abductor pollicis longus.
There are several muscles involved in flexing the hand. - Palmaris longus (flexes hand) - Flexor carpi radialis (flexes and abducts hand) - Flexor carpi ulnaris (flexes and adducts hand) - Flexor digitorum superficialis (flexes proximal and middle phalanges, flexes hand) - Flexor digitorum profundus (flexes phalanges and hand) - Flexor pollicis longus (flexes thumb and hand) - Flexor pollicis brevis (flexes thumb) There are also a few more I did not include that flex specific digits of the hand
The word pollicis in anatomy makes a reference to anything to do with the thumb. For example, the muscle Flexor pollicus longis refers to the muscle that causes flexion of the thumb, and has a long tendon. Try putting the term together with other anatomical terms and see if they make any sense! :)
Dorsi flexion and eversion are its main actions. I just can't justify this your question.
Another name for bowed tendon is a tendonitis or tendon strain.
