The Posterior Femoral Cutaneous Nerve serves the posterior aspect of the thigh.
sciatic
***wrong answer***
The Posterior Femoral Cutaneous Nerve serves the posterior aspect of the thigh.
s1-s3
the sciatic diverge JUST PROXIMAL TO THE KNEE
The tibial nerve serves the posterior side of the leg. The tibial nerve is a branch of the larger sciatic nerve.
The lateral cutaneous and the femoral nerves both supply the anterior thigh and both are fairly major.
The sciatic nerve serves the posterior leg and foot. It can be such a problem that the patient cannot pick up their toes.
femoral nerve
Sciatic nerve .
most commonly injured at the neck of the fibula. injury will cause paralysis of muscles of anterior and lateral compartments of leg along with sensory loss on the skin of the dorsum of the foot. there will be loss of dorsiflexion and that will cause foot drop with patient walking on toes of affected foot. patient will also have difficulty in eversion of the foot with foot remaining in inversion.
True
There are two: tibialis anterior and the peroneus tertius.
The gastrocnemius is stimulated by a branch of the sciatic nerve called the tibial nerve. This causes contraction and produces plantar flexion of the foot. When a person stands on their "tippy toes" that is plantar flexion. This is a function of this nerve.
i dont know ask a docter

The posterior side of the thigh, leg, and foot are served by the tibial nerve. The tibial nerve is a branch of the sciatic nerve.
sciatic nerve
deep peroneal nerve from the common peroneal never
did you cut it or hit a vein or major nerve in your foot?
tibialis posteriorTibialis anterior and posterior tibialis posterior
Plantar flexion is performed by the muscles of the posterior compartment of the leg, eg gastronemius (mainly) and soleus; other muscles such as plantaris have a weak contribution. The spinal roots are S1 and S2 fibers of the posterior tibial nerve. Foot eversion is performed by the fibularis longus and brevis (both in the lateral compartment of the leg). They are supplied by the superficial peroneal nerve (L5, S1).
It involves the medial cuneiform and 1st metatarsal of the ankle.
If you were referring to foot fault, foot fault is when serving you foot steps on the baseline or if it crosses the middle of the baseline. If you do commit a foot-fault, a serve is taken away from you; i.e if you make a foot-fault on a first serve you have to hit a 2nd serve and if you make a foot-fault on a second serve, a double fault is given.
As a very distal location, there are not many palpable pulses in foot. Thou the posterior fibular artery (which passes in the medial posterior part of your anckle) might be felt in cases of high heartbeat frequency
it is lies in the posterior part of the calf,it is a flexor of the foot.
Foot drop is caused because there is disruption in signalling of the nerve to the muscle. The muscle that brings the foot up fails and so the foot drops The nerve can be temporarily injured = neuropraxia and therefore will recover. More extensive injuries to the nerve may or may not recover. A complete transection of the nerve is unlikely to recover without surgery So it depends on the cause and how extensive the injury to the nerve is
