dorsiflexion is the same as foot [pronation / supination] and plantarflexion is the same as foot [pronation / supination]
dorsiflexion - pronation
plantarflexion - supination
foot pronation is associated with a
- [plantarflexed / dorsiflexed] foot
- [inverted / everted] foot
- [abducted / adducted] foot
- [anterior / posterior] talus
- [internally rotated / externally rotated] tibia
- [anterior / posterior] fibular head
- dorsiflex
- everted
- abducted
- posterior palus
- externally rotated
- anterior fibular head
foot supination is associated with a
- [plantarflexed / dorsiflexed] foot
- [inverted / everted] foot
- [abducted / adducted] foot
- [anterior / posterior] talus
- [internally rotated / externally rotated] tibia
- [anterior / posterior] fibular head
- plantarflexed
- inverted
- adducted
- anterior talus
- internally rotated tibia
- posterior fibular head
dorsiflexion, i.e. foot [pronation / supination] is associated with a [] distal fibula and thus a [] fibular head
pronation
posterior
anterior fibular head
plantar flexion, i.e. foot [pronation / supination] is associated with a [] distal fibula and thus a [] fibular head
supination
anterior
posterior fibular head
describe the findings of a pronated foot
dorsiflexed, everted, abducted
