Description
[edit | edit source]
Adductor tendinitis is the inflammation of the tendons in the adductor muscles. We can divide them into long and short adductors: the long adductors (Gracilis & Adductor Magnus) go from the pelvis to the knee and the short adductors (Pectineus, Adductor Brevis & Longus) go from the pelvis to the thigh bone. These adductor muscles stabilize the pelvis and pull the legs together (= adduction).
