What else can I help you with?
Which ligament in the knee is damaged in extension?
medial collateral, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate
Where is posterior tibial located?
The posterior tibial artery is located in the lower leg, running along the back of the tibia bone. It branches off from the popliteal artery and travels downwards, posterior to the medial malleolus (the bony prominence on the inner ankle). The artery supplies blood to the posterior compartment of the leg and the plantar surface of the foot. It eventually divides into the medial and lateral plantar arteries.
Is the pinky located distal to the thumb?

Among the prominent bone marking of the tibia are the?
The anterior crest is prominent bone feature on the tibia. It is often called the shin.
Three veins serving the leg?
anterior tibial, femoral, posterior tibialfemoral, posterior tibial, anterior tibial
Which pulse you located behind the medial malleolus?
The posterior tibial artery pulse is located behind the medial malleolus, just below the posterior tibial tendon. This pulse can be palpated to assess circulation in the lower extremity.
Does the tibial collateral ligament provide medial or lateral support for the knee?
The tibial collateral ligament provides medial support for the knee. It's also called the medial collateral ligament.
What is the artery above the medial malleolus?
Posterior tibial artery.
Distal process on medial tibial surface?
The distal process on the medial tibial surface is also known as the medial malleolus. It is a bony prominence located on the inner side of the ankle joint where the tibia articulates with the talus bone of the foot. The medial malleolus helps stabilize the ankle joint and provides attachment points for ligaments that support the joint.
Is Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome the same as shin splints?
The best way to find out if Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome is the same as shin splints would be to look the information up in the medical book or ask a doctor.
Briely describe the the location of posterior tibial artery pulses?
The posterior tibial artery pulses are located behind the medial malleolus (ankle bone) on the inner aspect of the ankle. They are usually palpated just below the ankle joint medial to the Achilles tendon. The pulses can be assessed by gently pressing with the fingers to feel the pulsation.
Is the Tibial collateral ligament joined to the joint capsule?
The tibial collateral ligament is also known as the medial collateral ligament and is joint proximally to the Medial Condyle of the femur and distally to the body of the tibia a little bit below the condyle level. No
What is small osteophytes?
osteophyte
Which ligament in the knee is damaged in extension?
medial collateral, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate
The sciatic nerve is composed of what two nerves?
the common peroneal nerve and the tibial nerve:Common Peroneal Nerve, comprised of nerve fibers from L5, S1, S2, and S3.Tibial Nerve comprised of nerve fibers from L4, L5, S1, S2 and S3)
What contributes to the formation of the popliteal vein?
The popliteal vein carries blood from the knee to the thigh and calf muscles and ultimately to the heart. The vein is formed from the merging of the two posterior tibial veins and ends as it merges in to the femoral vein.
Where is posterior tibial located?
The posterior tibial artery is located in the lower leg, running along the back of the tibia bone. It branches off from the popliteal artery and travels downwards, posterior to the medial malleolus (the bony prominence on the inner ankle).
