What else can I help you with?
What is the alignment of the medial and lateral malleoli relative to each other?
The medial malleolus is located more distally and anteriorly compared to the lateral malleolus. The two malleoli form an asymmetrical alignment with the medial malleolus extending further down than the lateral malleolus.
Is the lateral malleolus distal end of the tibia?
No, the lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula. The medial malleolus is the distal end of the tibia.
Which bones form lateral and medial malleolus?
The lateral malleolus is formed by the fibula, while the medial malleolus is formed by the tibia. These bony protrusions are located on each side of the ankle joint, providing stability and support to the joint.
4 The medial malleolus is located on the distal end of what bone?
I think they are inner and outer ankle The Medial malleolus if found on the Tibia and the Lateral malleolus is found on the Fibula. The ankle connect to the Medial and Lateral malleolus.
What are the processes and bones that create your medial and lateral ankle and wrist bumps?
The bumps at the ankle are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The medial malleolus is formed by the tibia, and the lateral malleolus by the fibula. The medial wrist bump is formed by the styloid process of the ulna, and the lateral wrist bump by the styloid process of the radius.

Is the lateral malleolus distal end of the tibia?
No, the lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula. The medial malleolus is the distal end of the tibia.

The lateral malleolus is formed by the fibula, while the medial malleolus is formed by the tibia. These bony protrusions are located on each side of the ankle joint, providing stability and support to the joint.
What bone has a lateral malleolus?
Fibula
What is the malleoulus?
The ancle has two lateral bones - the tibia ends at the ancle with the medial malleolus and the fibia ends at the ancle with the lateral malleolus
Does the small saphenous vein begin on the posterior of the lateral malleolus of the fibula or the medial malleolus of the tibia?
Medial malleolus of the tibia
What is the difference between a lateral malleolus and a medial malleolus?
Lateral refers to the outside of the ankle while medial refers to the inside or towards the midline of the body
4 The medial malleolus is located on the distal end of what bone?
I think they are inner and outer ankle The Medial malleolus if found on the Tibia and the Lateral malleolus is found on the Fibula. The ankle connect to the Medial and Lateral malleolus.
What part of the body would you palpate a malleolus?
You would palpate the malleolus at the ankle joint. The malleolus is the bony prominence on either side of the ankle—the lateral malleolus on the outer side and the medial malleolus on the inner side.
What are the processes and bones that create your medial and lateral ankle and wrist bumps?
The bumps at the ankle are the malleoli (singular malleolus). The medial malleolus is formed by the tibia, and the lateral malleolus by the fibula. The medial wrist bump is formed by the styloid process of the ulna, and the lateral wrist bump by the styloid process of the radius.
What is on the outside of the ankle?
On the outside of the ankle, you will find the lateral malleolus, which is the bony prominence of the fibula. This area is important for stability and ligament support in the ankle joint. Muscles, tendons, and nerves also pass through this region.
A malleolus is found on the?
A malleolus is found on the ankle bone. There are two malleoli; the lateral malleolus on the outer side of the ankle and the medial malleolus on the inner side. Together, they help stabilize the ankle joint.
