Q

Describe what PAD and DAB refers to?

A

PAD = Palmar interossei ADDUCT (thumb and little finger have their0 own adductors)

DAB = Dorsal interossei ABDUCT (there is no dorsal interossei by the thumb because the thumb has its own abductor)

Q

Explain the path of the flexor digitorum profundus and superficialis
