Forces and injuries

Objectives

Describe the gross anatomy for each system (circulatory, muscular, nervous, and skeletal) in the lower extremity.

Integrate the systems to discuss the lower extremity stability and mobility functions.

Analyze common injuries in the lower extremities.

For each muscle, describe how the attachment sites result in an action around a joint.

For each muscle, identify the innervation (peripheral nerve and nerve roots).
