Q

For the Dorsal Interosseous Muscles

Where do the attach?

How many of these do we have?

A

Go between a given digit, and the digit closer to the middle finger.

Eg. 1st Digit to 2nd Digit, but 5th Digit to 4th Digit

Four. The 2nd and 4th have one. The 3rd Digit abducts both ways and has two.

The thumb and pinky have their own abductors
