| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| splayed foot | fallen medial/transverse arch |
| flat foot | fallen longitudinal arch |
| Pes Planus | flat foot |
| pes cavus | high arch |
| hammer toes | result of pes cavus |
| Bunion | starts as valgus deviation of great toe |
| bunionette | inflamation @ little toe (5th metatarsal |
| Achilles tendon | tendon that attaches calf muscles to the base of the calcaneus |
| subcutaneous bursae | just below the skin between the skin and the achilles |
| subtendinous bursae | between the bursae and the calcaneous |
| anterior compartment of the leg | tib anterior, ext. digit longus, ext. hallicus longus, tibial artery and deep peroneal nerve |
| most common anke sprain | lateral |
| most common injured tendon in lateral ankle sprain | talofibular ligament |
| calcaneofibular ligament | 2nd most common sprained ligament in lateral ankle sprain |
| supination | inversion |
| pronation | eversion |
| plantar flex | point toes |
| dorsaflex | toes to nose |
| anterion compartment syndrome | swelling of the soft tissues of the anterior compartment of the lower leg |
| why medial ankle sprains are less commom | deltoid ligament and medial mallelous, distal part of fibula is longer than tibia and that stops excessive eversion |
| 3 joints that make up the ankle | anterior talofibular, calcaneofibular & posterior talofibular |
| mortons neuroma | plantar nerve injured btw/ 3 & 4th metatarsal |
| plantar fascitis | excessive tension of the plantar fascia @ the attachment of the anterior calcaneus |
| Tarsal tunnel syndrome | compression or tension neuropathy of the tibial nerve in the tunnel |
| tendons that pass thru the tarsal tunnel | tib posterior, flex digit longus, flex hallux longus |
| retrocalcaneal bursitis | subcutaneous bursae most common inflamed |
| 2 muscles that attach to the achilles tendon | gastroc & soleus |
| Cause of achilles tendonosis | overuse & tight calfs |
| Anterior compartment of the leg | tib anterior, EDL, EHL, tibial artery & vein, deep peroneal nerve |
| Anterior compartment syndrome | swelling of tissues in anterior compartment |
| shin splints | occur from repetitive overuse of the anterior compartment muscles |
| 2 places shin splints can occur | anterior lateral, medial tibial stress syndorme (mtss) |
| Anterior compartment shin splints | overuse of the tib anterior muscle |
| MTSS | overuse of the tib posterior muscle |
| perostitis | inflamation of the periostium surrounding the bone, often in shin splints |
| referred pain | trigger point |
| Lateral ankle sprain | ATFL, CFL, Peroneus longus muscle |
| Plantar flexors | gastroc/soleus, Plantaris, peroneus longus, Tibialis posterior, FDL, FHL |
| dorsiflexors | tib anterior, EDL, EHL |
| everts foot | peroneus longus & Brevis |
| Inverts foot | tibialis posterior |
| Sartrorius | longest muscle in the body |
| Lachman's test | ACL integrityh |
| Straigtest bone | tibia |
| Valgus stress test | medial collateral ligament |
| Terrible Triad | ACL MCL MM |
| Direct blow to the tibia would... | blow the PCL |
| Apley Compression test | for meniscal damage |
| Apley distraction test | for ligament damage |
| Kyphosis | posterior pelvic tilt |
| tight short muscle | spasm |
| tight long muscle | taught/stringy |
| anterior tilt = | tight, short illiopsoas |
| posterior tilt = | eccentric/taught illiopsoas |
| pes cavus leads to... | plantar fascitis |
| plantar fascitis leads to... | bone spurs on anterior calcaneus |
| deep 6 rotators | piriformis, obterator internus/externus, gamellis inferior/superior, quadratus femoris |
| tarsal tunnel syndrome | posterior tibial nerve entrapped by the medial maleolus |
| medial maleolus | on tibia |
| lateral maleolus | on fibula |
| genum recurvatum | lock knee |
| genum valgum | knock knee |
| genum varum | bow legged |
| mortons toe | 2nd toe larger than great toe |
| function of arches of the foot | shock absorbtion |
