Introduction[edit | edit source]
Human feet allow for bipedal locomotion [1], and they are an essential sensory structure for postural control.[2] The foot structure is complex, with many bones, joints and ligaments that divide the foot into a rearfoot, midfoot, and forefoot. Clinicians’ ability to understand anatomical structures of the foot is a crucial component of their examination and treatment intervention, especially when treating clients with musculoskeletal conditions. [3] [4] This article discusses the foot assessment's elements, including key anatomical structures.
