MUSCLES FOOT
The muscles of the foot are grouped into 4 regions:
- Medial Planting Region
- Lateral Planting Region
- Planting Region Average
- Dorsal Region
Medial Planting Region | Lateral Planting Region | |
Hallux Abductor Hallux Short Flexor Hallux Adductor |
Low Abductor Short Flexor of Minimum Opponent of the Low |
|
Planting Region Average | Dorsal Region | |
Fingers Short (Plantar) Planting Square Luminaires Plantar Interosseous Dorsal Interossei |
Short Finger Extender Short Extender Hallux |
