the foot is the part of the lower limb distal to the ankle joint. It is covered on its dorsal surface by loosely adherent skin and on its plantar/inferior surface by thick hairless skin that is tough and strongly adherent to the underlying plantar aponeurosis. the foot consists of a number of bones crammed up in a small area of space and well positioned for weight bearing and weight distribution.
