Great toe • On the plantar (bottom) surface of the great toe there are sesamoid bones
Phalanges • Each phalanx is the size it needs to be for weight bearing purposes. • Which is the smallest? • Largest?
Metatarsals • There are 5 metatarsals in the foot • 1,2,3,4,5 3 1 2 4 5
Head and base • Each bone has a Head and a base. The head is the superior aspect of the bone and the base in the inferior aspect of the bone in this picture. Head Base
The Base of the 5th metatarsalis called Styloid process Athletic trainers are concerned about this when taping an ankle.
There are 7 Tarsals Bones • 3 Cuneiforms 1,2,3 • Cuboid-connected to 2 metatarsal • Navicular-connected to 3 cuneiforms • Talus-must PF the ankle to be able to palpate it. • Calcaneus-responsible for heel strike
Tibia Located on the medial side of the lower leg. **Femur rests on HEAD of the tibia Medial malleolus-BASE of the tibia Medial malleolus
Tibia continued • The top of tibia has medial and lateral epicondyles • Tibial tuberosity-bump on superior middle aspect of tibia. The patellar tendon attaches to it.
Osgood schlatters • A condition where the patellar tendon pulls on tibial tuberosity causing a bump in the lower leg.
Fibula • Located on the lateral side of the lower leg • Lateral malleolus-BASE of the fibula
Common peroneal nerve • Wraps around the head of the fibula. • *MUST USE CAUTION WHEN ICING
