32
Q

List 4 toe deformities

A

Hammer toes, claw toes, mallet toes, trigger toe

33
Q

How do hammer toes arise?

A

Proximal phalanx hyperextended, distal phalanx plantar flexed at PIP joint, distal phalanx extended

34
Q

How do claw toes arise?

A

Proximal phalanx hyperextended at MP joint, flexion of distal and proximal IP joints

35
Q

What usually causes toe deformities?

A

Q

How does a trigger toe arise?

A

Only flexion at the IP joint of the big toe

38
Q

How does the tibial nerve innervate the foot?

A

It splits into the medial plantar nerve and the lateral plantar nerve, the lateral plantar nerve has a deep and superficial branch

39
Q

What 4 muscles does the medial plantar nerve innervate?

A
