uitular Muscles of the Lower Limb 15. Shin splints, a common exercise-related problem, are characterized by pain along the inner edge of the shin bone, typically after physical activity, especially running. Shin splints are caused by an inflammation of the muscles, tendons, and bone tissue around your tibia. Based on this lab, what muscles do you think are inflamed? 16.

Answer 1

15. Shin splint can occur in two regions, anterior shin splints or posterior shin splints, in case of anterior shin splint, muscle involved is, the tibialis anterior muscle and in case of posterior shin splint, the muscle which could be injured is, the tibialis posterior.

16. Calf injuries are most often caused by overstretching or putting extra force through the calf muscles at the back of your leg. The calf muscles consists of three muscles, gastrocnemuis, soleus and plantaris. Gastrocnemius and soleus muscles helps in plantar flexion of the ankle joint and flexion at knee joint, they provide the propelling force for the movement. plantaris muscle helps in plantar flexion of ankle.

Muscle strain usually occurs in the medial head of gastrocnemius or close to the musculotendinous joints.

17. d. : Gluteus maximus.

a : iliopsoas

e : Gastrocnemius.

b : Anterior and lateral leg to foot.

c : Tibialis anterior.

18. The linea aspera is the ridge of the roughened surface on the posterior surface of the shaft of femur
