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

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

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
