A

spring ligament - prevents your head of talus from driving down into the ground

gliding - for flexibility as we walk on different surfaces

20
Q

tarsometatarsal joints are between what and what and what kind of joint are they?

A

gliding joints
they are between your tarsal bones and the base of your meta tarsals (between small bones and 1st set of long bones before the three / 2 of thumb)

21
Q

Metatarsal phalangeal joints - what kind of joint are they and where are they?

A

they are condyloid bones - allow for plantar flexion, dorsi flexion, abduction and adduction
they are between the distal end of the metatarsal and the proximal phalangeal

22
Q

interphangeal joint type of joint? and where?

A

hinge joint - mainly dors and plantar flexion

between the proximal, medial, and distal phalangeal (separates proximal and distal big toe phalangeal)

23
Q

Sinus tarsi syndrome & the sinus tarsus

A

the “eye of the foot”. It is this space between the calcaneus and talus of foot. When you injure your foot this area can really have localized pain and inflammation
