Muscles of the foot Characteristics Flashcards
Detail the charecteristics of the Abductor Hallucis (THERE IS NO ABDUCTOR HALLUCIS BREVIS)
oRIGIN = M C and P A

Detail the characteristics of the Abductor Digiti Minimi
Origin = L C and P A
INSERTION = P P of 5th
innervation = L P N
Action = A and F 5th at MTP
Origin: Lateral Calcaneus and Plantar aponuerosis
Insertion: Proximal Phalanx of 5th digit ( middle of little toe)
Inervation: Lateral Plantar Nerve
Action: Abduct and flex the little toe at MTP Joint
Detail the characteristics of the Flexor Digitorum Longus Tendon
D FOR D CLUE FLEXOR MEANS IN THE SOLE OF THE FOOT DIGITORUM MEANS GOING TO THE TOES LONGUS means Longer so they have to reach the distal aspect of the toes
ORIGIN = T
Inervation = Tibial nerve
INSERTION = D P of the L four toes
Action = F at MTP PIP DIP
Origin: Tibia
Insertion: Distal Phalnax of the lateral four toes (ends of toes 2 to 5)
Inervation: Tibial nerve
Actiion: Flexes toes 2-5 at MTP, PIP AND DIP Joints
Detail the characteristics of the Flexor hallucis longus tendon
Origin = F
Ineertion = D P of H
Innervation = T N
Action = F of the H at MTP IP
Origin: Fibula
Insertion: Distal Phalanx of the big toe
Innervation: Tibial Nerve
Action: Flexion of the Hallux at MTP and IP Joints
Detail the characteristics of the Quadratus Plantae
Origin = P S of the C
iNSERTION = T of the F D L
iNNERVATION = L P N
Action = redirect F D L T
Origin: Plantar Surface of the Calcaneus
Insertion: Tendon of the flexor digitorum longus
Innervation: Lateral Plantar nerve
Action: Redirect the line of pull of the flexor digitorum longus tendon (helps flex digits 2-5)
What are the characteristics of the Lumbricals
origin = M of FDLT
INSERTION = BASE of P P
INNERVATION = 1ST M OTHER 3 L
ACTION F MTP and E IP
Origin: Medial of the Flexor Digitorum Longus (side of the FDL)
Insertion: Base of the proximal phalanx
Innervation: The 1st Lumbrical (nearest the big toe) by the medial nerve and the other 3 lumbricals by the lateral nerve
Action: Flex MTP Joints and Extend the IP joints
Detail the characteristics of the Flexor Hallucis Brevis
C bone and Lateral 1 of the 3 C Bone
Origin P S of C bone and L CU
Insertion M and L P P
CLUE: INSERTION HAS TO BE PROXIMAL BECAUSE THE HALLUX DOESNT HAVE A MIDDLE PHALANX (only has two phalanges prox and dist)
Origin: Plantar surface of the cuboid bone and the lateral Cunieform
Insertion: Medial and Lateral proximal phalanx of the big toe (muscle has two heads. It seperates into two parts and goes around Flexor hallcius longus tendon)
Innervation: Medial Plantar Nerve
Action: Flexes the Hallux
Detail the charecteristics of the Flexor Digiti quinti
Origin - B OF 5TH M
Insertion - P P of 5th toe
Innervation - L P N
Action - F L T
Origin: Base of the fifth Metatarsal
Insertion: Proximal Phalanx of the 5th toe
Innervation: Lateral Plantar nerve
Action: Flex the little toe
Detail the characteristics of the of the Adductor Hallucis (Oblique Head)
Origin: Base of the 2nd,3rd,4th metatarsals
Insertion: Lateral Base of the Hallux
Innervation: Lateral Plantar Nerve
Action: Adducts the Hallux
Detail the Characteristics of the Adductor Hallucis (Transverse Head)
Origin - P L of the L 4 MTP
Origin: Plantar Ligaments of the lateral 4 MTP joints
Insertion: Lateral Base of the Hallux
Innervation: Lateral Plantar Nerve
Action: Adduct the Hallux and assist in maintaining the transverse arch
Detail the characteristics of the Plantar Interossei
Origin: On the medial side of metatarsal 3 4 and 5
Insertion: Base of the medail side of the proximal phalanges 3rd 4th 5th and the extensor expansions of these digits
Innervation: Lateral Plantar Nerve
Action: Adduct to the midline of the foot (2nd Toe)
Detail the charecteristics of the Dorsal Interossei (4muscles)
O = Adjacent side of two metatarsal
Insertion = Muscle (1) M side of 2nd Digit, other 3 L side of the next digit
Action = opposit to the plantar
Origin: Adjacent sides of the two metatarsals
Insertion: Muscle (1) medial side of the 2nd digit the other 3 lateral side of the next digit
innervation: Lateral Plantar Nerve
Action: Abducts from the line of the 2nd toe
