foot muscles
What two joints create inversion and eversion?
Eversion is when the foot is curved away from the other foot and is controlled by peroneus longus and peroneus brevis. Inversion is when the foot curves the opposite way, towards the other foot, and is controlled by tibialis anterior and tibialis posterior. The subtalar joint or talocalcaneal joint is the joint that is responsible for creating inversion and eversion in the foot. This joint plays no part in the flexing of the foot though.
