A

Sensation to anterior and lateral thigh and medial LE and foot

20
Q

Effects of muscle that involves injure to lumbar nerves

A

Provides sensation to the medial aspect of the thigh

21
Q

Valgus/varus effects on the knee

A

Causes stress laterally/medially

22
Q

Ligaments in hip, what happens when they’re tight

A

All attach to acetabulum
Slack in flexion
Taut in hyper extension

23
